Your 4K footage is sitting on a laptop with barely any free space and the client wants the edit by Friday. You need storage that keeps up — not another drive that crawls and makes you watch a progress bar for an hour.
The G-DRIVE PROJECT 18TB moves data at up to 260MB/s over Thunderbolt 3, so a 50GB raw video file lands in seconds. Pre-formatted APFS, Time Machine ready out of the box. The 7200RPM Ultrastar enterprise-class drive inside is built for daily heavy workloads, not just a weekend backup.
The PRO-BLADE SSD Mag slot lets you drop in a SanDisk PRO-BLADE for even faster offload or editing straight off the SSD. Colour-coded ports mean you grab the right cable first try, even at 7:45am before the coffee kicks in.
Anodised aluminium body. Three LED brightness settings so it isn't glaring in a dark edit bay. Pairs with iPad (USB-C) for on-the-go creative workflows.
