Hello, does anyone have benchmarks using blackmagic's speed test software, i would like to know what read and write speed you can get with this?

I would not buy this item. The drive is one of the slowest thunderbolts out there. The drives are not user serviceable. If a drive fails u need to send it in. I experienced cooling issues with this unit as well.

I can not help you with that response because it never worked properly and, until today, not heard back from producer.Zero response from Blackmagic, zero chance to work with, very bad buy and loss of money and time.

I have two of the 16 GB 1000 x and they say the write speed is about 95 Mb per sec. I can't prove it but I also have 600 x and I can tell it has a faster write time. I use a Nikon D 700 and so continuous @ 8 fps in RAW. I like them.

I can't comment on the Sandisk but I have the 128GB Lexar in the GoPro 4 Black and seems to run fine for 4k 30fps and 1080p 120fps. No problems so far. However, data transfers over the Lexar USB adapter on USB 3 run @ 58mb/s, so I was expecting a little faster e.g. the advertised 95mb/s. Definitely using USB 3.0 combined with a 550mb/s read/write SSD and i7 so no bottleneck. 58mb/s is fast enough though!

I have the printer but use a PC, not a Mac. That scan speed seems extraordinarily slow. My page scans take 30 seconds, if that long. I have a cable connection between the printer and my router.

I think its the fastest CF card you can get, its 800 Mbs per second. whereas Sandisks are only a fraction of this speed

Try the card in a few other computers, or different brands to figure out if the problem lies in the card itself. BTW, theoretical top speeds are never achieved in practice. See Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_device_bit_rates#mediaviewer/File:Speeds_of_common_interfaces.svg

Sandisk says "write speed up to 90 MB/s"I did some tests with my USB 3 Card Reader (sandisk brand) Wrote a 4gb file to it and averaged 75mb/s and even faster on smaller files.. PC: i7 2600k @ 4.2 Win 7 64bit

Unfortunately non-software that I have can test it and the hardware itself does not seems to be different physically but I will recommend it as it works good for burning at 6x and the time was 16 min as expected for this device class and if an optical go up from 16x then you maybe need SATA3 but currently it seems does not applies [16 576 Mbit/s 72 MB/s] because SATA 2 3Gb/s is good up to ~ 290MB/s read and write vs. 6Gb/s is good up to ~ 600mb/s read / write.

Hey Gov, based on my testing of the card, read and write speeds of 44.4MB/s and 19.1MB/s respectively. Hope that helps.

I called customer support for a question 5 months ago, and at that time one of the first questions I was asked was, "Am I running Mavericks?" At that time it was not supported. I would call the customer service for BlackMagic to see if that latest software is supported.

110.36 MB/sec Reading, 84.31 MB/sec Writing, from Synology's website. I have not tested these specs but I have been very impressed with the speed of this unit. I uploaded approx. 80 Gig of photos once I set the NAS up and is was able to generate the thumbnail views relatively fast, the unit also gives you the ability to pause cpu intensive actions so that you can do what you need to do then resume the intense process later. Very nice feature.

I used it with PC, not Mac. And often it takes a little while before PC recognizes it.And by the way, I was disappointed with speed, Customer service was great, they also though the numbers I am telling are no good. They quickly sent me a replacement. But no difference. I used a 4TB 6GB Sata disk in it (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B99JU4S/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) and tested it with HP Elite book. copying from an internal 7200rmp drive, big multi GB files and speed was at best 50-60MB, and on USB 2, 20-35 MB. While I have consistently got 100+mb on similar copy while copying on internal drives. I used it with PC, not Mac.

A regular harddrive reads and writes about about 80 megs per second, this drive does it at around 400 mps. Its really impressive, but you need to make sure both the drive and the computer its connected to have SSDs and thunderbolt to take advantage of the speed.

I tried to update from the company but it didn't work either. But it still running fine at the writing speed roughly 80-90Mb/s. But don't know for some reason sometimes fail to write

i din not really know the write speed but it is faster than circular seek swite disk. i am happy with it.

Using Disk Speed Test my results are as follows: 109 Write and 106 Read on a Mac partitioned to HSF+. Hope this helps.
