Solid state disks are the perfect storage solution for media in television production because they are super fast and extremely large in storage size.

This means you get reliable, fast video recording and the speed to playback even the largest video files direct from each disk. Solid state disks let you record and playback either compressed or uncompressed video effortlessly! With Blackmagic MultiDock you can plug in any brand of 2.5 inch solid state disk you prefer so you get the solution perfect for your workflow!
Blackmagic MultiDock uses advanced Thunderbolt™2 technology so you get blazingly fast transfer speeds to your computer at up to 20 Gb/s with a single cable connection! That’s more than enough bandwidth to handle the highest resolution video formats including Ultra HD and 4K, or even demanding 3D stereoscopic files. MultiDock features a completely independent SATA 3 disk interface chip per disk slot so you never get slowdowns because of SATA bandwidth issues. MultiDock is also compatible with existing Thunderbolt computers and includes a loop thru so you can connect up to 6 devices to your computer with a single Thunderbolt connection!
