Download footage example
1. Connect SSD to PC
2. Identify the device (using dmesg, for example). Example: /dev/sdc. The second partition contains footage = /dev/sdc2
3. cd to the dir
$ cd elphel-tools-x393
4. Download footage in 10GB chunks (the script has 20MB overlapping to prevent corrupted images in the preceding chunk)
- Download 30GB but skip the first 20GB (download range = 20-50GB on the SSD), to /data/footage/test1 on PC:
$./ext_ssd_download.py -p /dev/sdb2 -n 3 -s 2 /data/footage/test1 result tree: /data/footage/test1 └── Crucial_CT2050MX300SSD1_163315B50899-part2 - each drive has a unique identifier, the script creates a corresponding directory ├── file_2.img ├── file_3.img └── file_4.img
- Download whole partition, to /data/footage/test1 on PC:
$./ext_ssd_download.py -p /dev/sdb2 /data/footage/test2
