00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:19,920
truthfully I don't much like doing SSD unboxings anymore they're pretty much

2
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:24,480
the same as far as the thing that's inside the box and what it looks like

3
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:30,039
but I've had at least a few people asking me about SanDisk ssds for quite

4
00:00:26,599 --> 00:00:32,640
some time and I was mildly curious about

5
00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:36,960
whether a non sandforce based SSD would work in the Blackmagic cinema camera

6
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:41,920
that we're planning to purchase in spite of there not being any non- sandforce

7
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:46,960
based ssds on the validated list so first let's start with SanDisk ssds in

8
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:52,000
general they're not exactly um you know an Enthusiast type brand from a from a

9
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:55,719
Gamers a typical Gamers perspective you might look at SanDisk and go okay well

10
00:00:53,559 --> 00:01:00,519
that's stuff that like you know camera people use whereas you know I'm going

11
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:04,479
for like ocz or whatever else but for professional users speaking of what

12
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:10,159
camera people might use they are definitely an Enthusiast grade brand so

13
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:14,439
their SD cards and compact flash cards traditionally have been among the

14
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:18,759
fastest in fact they have the fastest SD card available in terms of sustained

15
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:23,759
right speeds at the moment with black magic specifically recommending their

16
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:29,119
extreme Pro Series for raw recording on the Blackmagic pocket camera so there

17
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,840
you go they own Fabs which gives them the luxury of being being able to

18
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:37,439
handpick the absolute best flash for themselves this equates to both an

19
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:41,799
endurance and a performance advantage and aside from using their own flash on

20
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:46,320
here which is an advantage they're using a Marva very fast Marvel controller and

21
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:50,920
their own custom firmware to achieve performance that is at or near the top

22
00:01:48,479 --> 00:01:54,200
of pretty much every performance Benchmark you can possibly find inside

23
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,439
the box I guess I should have mention that there's an ESD bag there's the SSD

24
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:03,840
itself it's a 7 mm SSD and it comes with a spacer so you can space it out to 9 mm

25
00:02:01,399 --> 00:02:08,640
if your particular notebook supports that form factor as opposed to the

26
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,280
Slimmer one and I guess that's all there

27
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:14,959
is to really say about it of course you'll pay a premium for this and any

28
00:02:13,319 --> 00:02:20,040
Extreme Performance I mean it says extreme like right on the box this and

29
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:24,120
any Extreme Performance SSD but whether or not it's worth the extra cost to you

30
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:29,160
these days particularly if you're coming from a hard drive which is so much

31
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:31,120
slower than even the slowest SSD is

32
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:35,959
probably open for debate if you are a professional user and you do need very

33
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:41,000
good longevity it comes with a 5year warranty and you need extreme Supreme

34
00:02:38,519 --> 00:02:43,560
performance and all that stuff then I guess it's not really that debatable

35
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:49,560
you're probably going to want to go for something like this at any rate it's available in 120 gig 240 gig and 40 gig

36
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:53,280
configurations as usual this is something I should probably mention just

37
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:57,879
because nobody seems to know this you can find the pricing of pretty much

38
00:02:56,239 --> 00:03:00,480
anything I unbox by checking out the pricing and availability Link in the

39
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:04,560
video description and I think that's pretty much it guys like the video if you liked it dislike

40
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:08,239
it if you disliked it leave a comment and let me know your thoughts on the

41
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:11,680
video if they're more complicated than this or this and as always don't forget
