    I've used this SSD, while using a Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro, to record several video productions. It has not disappointed!! I am able to easily access all my files ( camera ISO's included) and transfer them with ease. I've also transferred, a few small projects, from my laptop onto the Extreme SSD. I'm very happy with the speed and reliability of it.
