Where is the link? How can iPhone backup directly to an external hard drive?
Plug it in to the USB port on the phone. iPhone Pro can transfer at up to 20 Gbps but the non-pro models are much slower. The iPhone camera can also shoot directly to an attached SSD.

You can load the IPhone’s pictures on Linux using the folders namespace and then rsync from the loaded namespace to /local…
