ISLAMABAD, AUGUST 12: In 2024, Western Digital will present the 8 TB SD card, the first in the globe, and the 16 TB external SSD, a first for the industry. These state-of-the-art storage options push the limits of memory and storage capacities and are the company’s most sophisticated products.
The SanDisk 8 TB SDUC UHS-I SD card and the 16 TB SanDisk Desk Drive external SSD are among the recently released items. Following the Secure Digital Ultra Capacity (SDUC) standard, this 8 TB SD card can read data at up to 100 MBps, making it ideal for consumer devices.
The SanDisk 4 TB MicroSD card was announced by Western Digital a few months before to this introduction. Although the new storage devices’ release dates and prices are unknown, premium pricing is expected. It is anticipated that professional photographers and videographers who require large storage capacities will benefit most from these items.
In a high-end mirrorless camera, a SanDisk 8TB SDUC UHS-I card can hold about 165,000 24 megapixel raw image files. Whichever genre or area of expertise the photographer works in, this is a considerable amount of storage on a single card.
