G-Technology G DRIVE mobile PRO SSD (1TB) Review

By Jim Bask 0 Comment September 6, 2018

We have been reviewing TB3 external devices for some time now and it is great to be so far away from those 500MB/s and lower portable storage device speeds. TB3 has been a gift to media professionals, to say the least. Up until today, however, there has only been a single device that we have reviewed that has the portability of pocket sized mobile storage, and didn’t need external power of some sort. This was the Tekq Rapide TB3 Portable SSD and, as absolutely sweet as that device is, it just never hit main stream. Still, with such a beautiful cut and performance up to the TB3 ceiling of 2.8GB/s, the Tekq Rapide goes with me everywhere. Can we change that?

By Jim Bask 0 Comment August 3, 2018

.If you’ve seen a hard drive in LaCie’s rugged collection before, the Rugged RAID Pro will look immediately familiar. It features an aluminum-encased hard drive wrapped in durable, shockproof orange rubber. Compared to the former Rugged RAID hard drive LaCie offered, this new model is thinner and lighter. Size wise, the dimensions aren’t hugely different, but it’s noticeable. This new model measures in at 1.18 x 3.6 x 5.5 inches, compared to the Rugged RAID’s 1.3 x 3.6 x 5.8 inch dimensions, and it weighs just about a pound

G-Technology R-Series SSD: A blazing fast little rugged drive

By Jim Bask 0 Comment August 1, 2018

SSDs offer two big advantages when it comes to storage on the move. Very fast speeds, the ability to withstand knocks, and their incredibly light weight form factor. Often not much bigger than a credit card, SSDs are a great thing to have around if you want to back up or copy footage on location. G-Technology’s R-Series is designed to withstand a 3m drop, with IP67 water resistance, and the abilty to withstand 1000lbs of crushing force. Which will come in handy if you are prone to leaving your drives in the path of the average car.
