SanDisk Professional Pro-Blade review: Fast, but an answer to a question nobody is asking
Mike Wuerthele said:sdw2001 said:I'm kind of undecided on this. On one hand, it's a fast, swappable and durable option that is pretty reasonably priced. On the other hand, it seems to me you are paying for speed. Many prosumers don't need even 1GB/s. It depends on what you're doing. I deal with editing 4K+ drone video and transferring files. For that purpose, even an Sd card at 200 mb/s is fine. If I was working with larger files (like 40gb+) I might be more concerned about speed. Even then, I can get a 2TB Sandisk external drive that hits 1GB a second for around the same price as this. If you spend a bit more you can get 2.8gbs ($350). Still, the swappable nature and durability is compelling. Definitely seems like a niche market.
We don't recommend it for most, today, but it's fun. If they can convince camera manufacturers to adopt it, it'll be of wider interest.
