SanDisk releases the word s frist 1 terabyte SD card
Sandisk has been showcasing a new memory card at Photokina today and it has a whopping 1TB (terabyte) of storage.
The 1TB SanDisk Extreme Pro SDXC card is double the size of the largest SDXC cards currently available but if you do need this amount of storage capacity, you're going to have to wait a while as the card's just a prototype and currently, there's no confirmed release date or price.
“Just a few short years ago the idea of a 1TB capacity point in an SD card seemed so futuristic - it’s amazing that we’re now at the point where it’s becoming a reality," says Sam Nicholson, CEO of Stargate Studios and member of the American Society of Cinematographers.
With more cameras now capturing 4k and even 6k video, plus the 360° video market growing, a storage device offering this kind of capacity is becoming almost a necessity, as Sam continues to explain: "With the growing demand for applications like VR, we can certainly use 1TB when we’re out shooting continuous high-quality video. High-capacity cards allow us to capture more without interruption, streamlining our workflow, and eliminating the worry that we may miss a moment because we have to stop to swap out cards."
Dinesh Bahal, vice president, product management, Content Solutions Business Unit, Western Digital added: "Showcasing the most advanced imaging technologies is truly exciting for us. Sixteen years ago we introduced the first SanDisk 64MB SD card and today we are enabling capacities of 1TB."
