Western Digital introduced a new product under its brand called the SanDisk Professional PRO-BLADE Modular Solid State Disks, which is aimed at creators who need fast portable storage devices that are capable of holding terabytes of data.
The system includes the PRO-BLADE mag, PRO-BLADE portable, and PRO-BLADE desktop enclosures. There are three sizes of the PRO-BLADE SSD mag, with prices ranging from $180 to $600. Three meter drop protection and 4,000 lbs crush resistance are offered by the PRO-BLADE.
One of the PRO-BLADE mags can be found in the Pro-BLADE Transport Portable USB-C SSD enclosure. It supports read/write speeds of up to 2000MB/s and it is easy to swap between mags when using the enclosure with a camera. There are also bundles that include one of the PRO-BLADE mags that are priced starting at $240.
The PRO-BLADE Station is an enclosure that can accommodate four PRO-BLADE SSD mags. The PRO-BLADE Station supports faster transfer speeds than the portable SSD enclosure because it has a 40Gb/s Thunderbolt interface. The PRO-BLADE Station and PRO-BLADE SSDs allow for real-time editing and copying.
The PRO-BLADE enclosure will be available in June 2022, while the desktop enclosure will be available in the fall.
The Western Digital Extreme Pro memory card lineup has support for up to 200MB/s. Western Digital says that the new cards are the fastest in the world and will ship in June with prices starting at $20.
