In this video I’m taking a look at a BUNCH of solid state drives that are on the market and strong options for video editors who need fast, reliable, portable SSDs to get their editing work done. There’s a lot of controversy around SanDisk these days due to failing drives, so I wanted to share with you what hard drive I’d buy if I were buying brand new TODAY.

  1. Let the debate begin! What SSD would you buy to get the most out of Speed, Capacity & Trust/Reliability? Side note: I really need to get a new SSD – mine are too old!

  2. Love the U34 Bolt SSD. It’s manufactured by Oyen Digital, available in capacities of 2 TB, 4 TB, and 8 TB, and it’s designed for ultra-fast speeds via USB4 or Thunderbolt 4—up to ~2,800 MB/s

  3. Does the Apple Thunderbolt 5 cable can help video editing faster directly from a Samsung T9 SSD?
