Hi there,
we have several Hyperdecks and one Atomos Sumo and we recently had issues with recording to Crucial MX500 SSDs which turned out not to be the wisest choice. Also Samsung Evos have been disapproved of by Atomos Support and you won't get any Pros in high capacities!
We record up to 4x 1080p50 in the Sumo and also UHD 50p in high bitrate codecs..
Now I try to find stuff that is fast, available in Germany, reasonably priced and on both them compatibility lists which you find here:
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/faq/23730
and here:
https://www.atomos.com/compatible-drives?product=sumo19
Currently my choice would be:
1. OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro 6G
- ca. 100€/TB
- fast (but not ultimate)
- good in Atomos list, in Blackmagic list approved up to 480 GB
2. Sandisk Ultra 3D (no extremes available it seems)
- almost too cheap to be good, 2TB > 100€
- very fast acc. to Atomos list.
- Ultra up to 500GB on Atomos list, several Sandisk Extremes on Blackmagic list
3. Kingston DC500M
- ca. 100€/TB
- very fast acc. to Atomos list
- many other Kingstons on Blackmagic list
Any opinions on this? What stuff did you buy? Would be interesting to hear what did NOT work
Thanks and cheers
