FAQ
Is this a camera memory card?
No. This is a portable external SSD for computers and compatible production workflows. Use it when your device, slot, cable, and workflow match this exact product format and performance class.
What host connection do I need?
Use a USB-C host that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 to approach the listed performance ceiling.
Can I edit from this drive?
Yes, for many proxy, photo, and video projects, provided your system and cable support the required bandwidth.
Which capacity should I choose?
Choose 2TB for larger projects or more retained backups, and 1TB for smaller kits and shuttle workflows.
Is this better as an edit drive or archive drive?
It is best used as a fast shuttle, edit, or backup drive. Long-term archive workflows should still use redundant storage.
