ADVERTI SEMENT FEATURE | G -TECHNOLOGY
If you’re anything like Nicolai Brix – a filmmaker always on the move – you need kit that’s portable, durable and saves you precious time. You need G-Technology DELIVERING THE STORY FASTER
the G-DRIVE mobile Pro SSD can produce transfer speeds that now match those of an internal drive – a monumental 2800 MB/s. This gives Nicolai the speed he requires to make editing his 4K footage on the move viable. “I shoot a lot with my Canon Cinema EOS C200 and Cinema EOS C300, so I’m dealing with pretty heavy footage,” he explains. “I had just tested the G-DRIVE by doing some read and write speed tests when I was given an assignment with a very fast turnaround time. I needed to deliver some test footage with some edits, so I used the drive to edit the footage on my laptop from a hotel and it worked,” Nicolai exclaims. At up to 20 times faster than a regular portable hard drive, the ability to transfer a terabyte of data in seven minutes saves hours over the life of a project on a PC
