Camera FW is not tailored for any specific drive, but rather for a drive that can provide the sustained writing throughput recording a continuous video requires.īMD tests specific drives, and determines which ones will work with BMD specifications, then those drives/cards are added to the list. BMD firmware supports a specific class of recording media, and has chosen drives that meet BMD’s recording standard, not the other way round. Sorry, but you have got this the wrong way round. I would think it's a reasonable assumption that BM will add support for the T7 in the near future. Sometimes the least expensive solution isn’t a solution.
I don’t like sounding like a broken record, but I’m hoping folks that are considering this type of solution will make their purchases according to BMD’s approved drives or based on Wise Advanced or Angelbird’s own assurances of compatibility after their own testing with BMD cameras. I believe Angelbird also tests their products with their BMD camera. BMD testing uses the entire capacity of all cell layers.įor those needing a comparable product, please consider the Wise Advanced Portable SSD or similar product as they do own the new Pocket cameras and they verify they’ll work.
I’m not saying this is the case with this particular drive, but vendors have been known to base their claims using data that fits within a limited high-speed cache or performance that is only sustained when a fraction of the drive’s capacity is used such as the first layer of a multi-layer cell design. These very large manufacturers are targeting the typical computer user and I’m confident they don’t own recent BMD cameras to test their products for suitability. It has to be frustrating when a vendor offers a product that is so much better than its predecessors and yet it fails as you discovered when applied to BMD video.
