Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How many hours will this hold?

A: How much data any media holds depends on several factors such as codec, bit rate, resolution, GB capacity, etc, etc. I can an give an example. On this media, recording 4K DCI to Apple ProRes and with 2ch/48.0 khz/24 bit audio, this 256GB SSD will record 54.7 minutes of video.

Q: 2. How much time will one of these record of RAW 4K footage?

A: You may wonder why recording times often are not listed for media. Or battery life time for that matter. The reason is there are so many variables that listing times for either becomes an exercise in futility. In regards to your question, recording times for media depends on the media size and video format basically of course. However, the actual size of the image in pixels, the frame rate and the bit rate of the codec also come into play. To figure this out, you can get AJA's very own DataClac App for your smartphone.As an example, that app says 4K-Full, 29.97 in ProRes will record 1 hours 7 minutes of video and sound on the AJA Pak512 512GB SSD.

Q: 6. will this work with usb A to C cord 2.0?

A: Yes, you can use a USB-A to USB-C 2.0 cable to connect the Xcellon M2NS USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 M.2 SSD Enclosure to your computer, but it will greatly reduce the speed of the drive inside. It is best to use a more high speed cable, such as the Oyen Digital USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C Male to Type-A Male Braided Cable (16")(BH #OYUCA04BN • MFR #UCA-04-BN). See: https://bit.ly/47xzx3y
