“Having a small, nimble and portable SSD that can rest on the edge of a laptop is very welcome” hours is game-changing,” Plesca notes. “The 2TB portable drive is also very helpful in that workflow. We can shoot for longer at higher resolutions without stressing over transfer times later. It really puts us in a different league.” There’s not just the shoot to consider, but post-production, too.“As a director, I love being involved in the editing process, as so much of a film’s story can be adapted during that time,” Plesca effuses. “I often start a pre-edit while travelling back from location. Away from the office, smooth editing is only possible on a powerful SSD. The Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield has allowed me to go ahead with instant editing, without the need for proxy files – and the whole workflow is super smooth.” Even in the studio, an external SSD can make editing seamless. Files taken from set are immediately available, without needing to upload to a desktop. With a rapid external scratch disk to draw from, demand on the computer is greatly reduced. The Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield outperforms many internal storage set-ups, for smooth and lag-free editing. Where some external drives remain restricted by cables, size and weight, the Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield is truly freeing – as Plesca discovered for himself. “The size and shape is fantastic. There is never enough room on-set, so having a small, nimble and portable SSD that can rest on the edge of a laptop is very welcome. It also feels extremely rugged with built-in rubber protection, so it’s perfect for travel projects.” Plesca isn’t wrong. The Samsung Portable SSD T7 Shield carries an IP65 rating, resistant to water, dust and drops up to 3m. The casing also features Dynamic Thermal Guard control to keep the drive cool. As a result, it performs throughout even the most sizable projects. All in all, this portable drive’s ingenious features come together to do one simple thing: free filmmakers to concentrate on the creative process.
