FAQs

What does "V60" mean on this SD card?

The "V60" rating indicates a minimum sustained write speed of 60 megabytes per second (MB/s). This is crucial for smooth, uninterrupted recording of high-resolution video formats like 4K.

Can I use this UHS-II card in a UHS-I slot?

Yes, the card is backward compatible. However, it will only perform at the speeds supported by the UHS-I interface, which are significantly slower than UHS-II.

What is the difference between UHS-I and UHS-II?

UHS-II cards have an additional row of pins, enabling much faster data transfer speeds compared to UHS-I cards. UHS-II typically offers read speeds up to 300MB/s and write speeds up to 290MB/s, while UHS-I is limited to around 104MB/s.

How do I ensure I get the maximum read/write speeds?

You need to use a camera and a card reader that both explicitly support the UHS-II standard. Your computer's USB connection should also be sufficient (USB 3.0 or higher).

Is this card suitable for professional video production?

Yes, its V60 rating and high write speeds make it suitable for many professional 4K video workflows, especially those that don't exceed sustained write demands beyond 60MB/s. For higher bitrates or 8K, a higher speed class card might be necessary.

How should I format this card?

It's best to format the card directly in the device (camera, camcorder) where you intend to use it. This ensures optimal compatibility and performance. Backup any important data before formatting, as it erases all content.

What is the warranty period for this card?

ProGrade Digital typically offers a limited lifetime warranty on their memory cards. Please refer to the official ProGrade Digital website or product packaging for the most accurate warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Card not recognized by camera or computer

Ensure the card is properly inserted. Try cleaning the card's contacts gently with a dry, lint-free cloth. Test the card in a different compatible device. If using a card reader, ensure it is UHS-II compatible and firmware is up to date. Format the card in the camera if possible (this will erase all data).

Slow transfer speeds

Verify that both your camera and your card reader support the UHS-II standard. Ensure your computer's USB port is also fast enough (e.g., USB 3.0 or higher). Close other applications running on your computer that might be using system resources.

Camera reports "Write Error" or "Cannot Save File"

Ensure the card is not full. Try formatting the card in the camera (backup data first). Check if your camera's firmware is up to date, as some cameras require updates to fully support certain cards. Verify the card meets the camera's minimum speed requirements for the recording mode you are using.

Data corruption or lost files

This is often caused by removing the card without safely ejecting it or by powering off the device during writing. Always eject the card properly. If data is lost, stop using the card immediately to prevent overwriting and consider using data recovery software. Regular backups are crucial.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High sustained write speeds for video recording
  • Fast read speeds for quick file offloads
  • Ideal for 4K/UHD video and high-bitrate capture
  • Designed for professional camera workflows
  • Reliable performance in demanding situations

Cons

  • Requires a UHS-II compatible card reader and camera to achieve maximum speeds
  • Higher cost compared to standard SD cards
  • 128GB may be insufficient for extremely long projects without offloading

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply insert the SD UHS-II card into the compatible SD card slot of your camera, camcorder, or other device. Ensure the card is fully seated. For optimal transfer speeds to a computer, use a UHS-II SD card reader connected via USB 3.0 or higher.

Compatibility: This card is backward compatible with UHS-I and standard SD devices, but will operate at their slower speeds. For full UHS-II performance (up to 250MB/s read, 130MB/s write), your host device (camera, card reader) must also support the UHS-II standard. Check your device's specifications for compatibility.

Care:

  • Avoid exposing the card to extreme temperatures or moisture.
  • Do not bend or apply excessive pressure to the card.
  • Always use the "Safely Remove Hardware" or "Eject" option on your computer before physically removing the card to prevent data corruption.
  • Regularly format the card in the camera it will be used with to maintain optimal performance and file system integrity.
