I carry my work horse DELL M90 laptop from the house to the RV's on trips. It all plugs into a DELL Docking station at both locations... I also carry three or four stand alone USB large capacity GB hard drives for all my different use and storage of the various thing I use my M90 laptop computer for. Drawings, photo, etc... Having access to all of the hard drives will allow you to move any "MY DOCUMENETS" files you need to. I also have several thumb DRIVES available to be used.
Kinda neat bringing my regular home computer setup with me everywhere we go. Both locations are usually setup almost the same with dual monitors and all of the normal hookups. I very seldom open the lid on the LAPTOP... I also have my radio comms interfaces to be concerned with. Just plop the laptop computer into the docking station and all works the same. Only difference is speed of the Internet hookup between what my house uses and my bring along Verizon MIFI unit. I am able to log into my home email accounts anywhere we go...
I purchased my M90 LAPTOP from ebay off lease sales many years back and of course it is now getting old and the operating system needs upgraded from the XP PRO. Looks like I need to do something similar and will look for the replacement for DELL M90 line of laptop work computers being the M6000 series. They are available from ebay off lease places in the $600-$800 range and some still show DELL Warranty left on them.. Probably will look for the DELL Precision M6500-M6700 workstation replacement units using Windows 7.
