Has anyone used this as primary video drive for Premiere Pro? I'm on an iMac I'm shooting 4K and need a sustained data rate a little over 100 mbps.

I'm going to be giving this a shot as I'm shooting 4k and want to process footage in the field. I'll let you know after I spring for this unit. Either way, its still a good drive and I'm sure it should work with at the minimum a lower resolution in the timeline.

No, I don't do any video editing on iMac. Using for just basic home use. Thanks

I am not familiar with Premiere Pro. My x900 60p slow-mo is smooth for playback. But if the slow-mo with Premiere Pro not smooth, perhaps the computer is working too hard. You might want to try on a faster computer to see if it makes a difference.

We use it for my iPhoto drive, as I have so many pictures I do not have enough space on my MacBook Pro.Is this what you meant?

I have it installed under Yosemite 10.10.3 on a 2009 Mac Pro. It has been working well so far with no additional drivers (or power). I tested the speeds using Black Magic with the same drive connected to the Mac's built-in USB 2.0 and then on the Inateck USB 3.0. The speed difference was quite dramatic under USB 3.0, although I have been using the external drive only for Time Machine backups, so it is not a big factor in real-world use.

Thanks! This looks great for the Mac, but a PC version (or parallel) would be great. Basically I'm looking for a timed way for a camera to come on a specific hour, and record until another hour, and then rotate the video files. Thoughts?

K, I to have that ? There's alot out the about Mac/Intel supports only to find the answer defeating your purpose. I want to edit my recordings with Imovie8 and am concerned about buying this camera and ending up with incompatible issues like Codec,codec conversion,transfer, capture, reduction of quality. Not to much all the unqualified reviews out their. I'm off to Europe soon and need the right cam. will fs11 do/Imovie

I found online that it supports OS X 10.6 and up. I am not familiar with OS X in general so I can't fully commit and say it will be easy to use. Many users are claiming it to be hard to find a good program for burning the data. Apple has never endorsed Blu-Ray so this shouldn't be surprising. I would check some forums before committing to a purchase, but I must say its a great BD burner.

Hi! I actually never run out on build in 32gb.Photo works for sd. I was able to copy video from main drive to a card... I didn't tried to film on sd card. If I will try, I will consider to get some fastest card possible, because regular cards can be not able to process so much data. But I really like that camera!

I can't comment on the Sandisk but I have the 128GB Lexar in the GoPro 4 Black and seems to run fine for 4k 30fps and 1080p 120fps. No problems so far. However, data transfers over the Lexar USB adapter on USB 3 run @ 58mb/s, so I was expecting a little faster e.g. the advertised 95mb/s. Definitely using USB 3.0 combined with a 550mb/s read/write SSD and i7 so no bottleneck. 58mb/s is fast enough though!

It's very fast. Now I use my computer for video and photograph editing, and never skip a beat as far as memory problems. I've got a great video card and use Photoshop, Lightroom and Nikk as my main editing tools. I also have Sony movie suite installed but seldom use it. I have no doubt that my Corsair Vengeance memory is up to the task of keeping everything running smooth. As for C9 memory I couldn't really comment on it. I'm comfortable giving two thumbs up on the Vengeance memory I'm currently using.

This is for anyone else who might have this question it says on the chart near the technical info that this is good for Video/Audio use.Edit:You're right, I was looking at the regular g-drive...although Im pretty sure the difference is really just the size and price.....

That is one of the reasons I got it. I'm a professional photographer and this is such a better deal than a Mac, performance per $. Very upgradable too. Ditch the HDD and get another Solid drive. Runs Lightroom and Photoshop like a boss. It's also great for video, runs Davinci Resolve and Premiere great.

I'm not sure; I use mine for video editing in Final Cut Pro, but Final Cut has a caching scheme that makes it possible to use slower drives (while rendering in background). Happy with mine though.

Hi there, almost all kind of videos I've been played on it, mp4, avi, mpg, mkv, flv with no problem. I've used dlna to share the videos from mac and pc. I hope this will help.

I am using it in my early 2006 Mac Pro and it is running it at full speed. Not sure why it is running slower for you.

I don't have any very specific experience with video editing with this specific SSD, but the data rates with playing, encoding and rendering video is usually very very low, even for hard drives. For lossless video capture though it might be a concern for data rate, but I don't doubt this drive would have any issues.
