About SSDs and SD Cards

Choosing a Fast SSD

When working with high data rate video it’s important to carefully check the SSD you would

like to use. This is because some SSDs can have up to 50% lower write speed than the

manufacturer’s claimed speed, so even though the disk specifications claim an SSD is fast

enough to handle video, in reality the disk is not fast enough for real time video recording.

Hidden data compression mostly affects recording and often these disks can still be used for

real time playback.

In our testing, we have found larger newer models of SSD and larger capacity SSDs are

generally faster. SSDs recommended for use with HyperDeck for uncompressed 10 Bit HD and

ProRes or DNxHR Ultra HD video recording include:
