Frequently Asked Questions

It comes pre-formatted with Apple's APFS file system, so it is ready to use out of the box with Mac, iPad Pro, and iPhone 16 without any reformatting.
What cable is included and does it work with USB-A ports?
A USB-C to USB-C cable is included. The drive supports both USB-C and USB-A connections, but you will need a separate USB-A adapter or cable for USB-A ports.

How durable is this SSD for field or outdoor use?
It carries an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance and can withstand drops from up to 7.5 feet (2 meters), making it well-suited for location shoots and outdoor work.

The drive is a 1TB model. Formatted usable capacity will be slightly less than 1TB due to file system overhead, typically around 930GB.
