SanDisk (a Western Digital brand) has been one of the most reputable companies out there when it comes to storage media for all of your mobile devices, travel drives, and more. As with any year, it always has something new to announce that takes things one step further.
The company has a new 4TB SD card it announced at NAB 2024 in Las Vegas, centered around professionals looking to get as much onto a single card as possible, as fast as possible. The upcoming SDUC UHS-I memory card will offer blazing speeds for professionals who demand high capacity for things like 8K+ recording with as little compression as possible (usually limited to the speed of the card and interface). Allowing plenty of content to be stored before having to swap out to another card.
The SDUC standard (Secure Digital Ultra Capacity) is capable of supporting up to 128TB of capacity that it can eventually grow into over time. Proving that there are exciting products within the company’s timeline that will help propel our devices forward as processing power and resolutions continue to climb.
No price has been announced just yet, nor do we know exactly when in 2025 this new card will be dropping, but you can expect that it will come with a hefty price tag. It likely won’t be less than $299 and could be possibly as high as $450 depending on how the prices of the cards below it fluctuate (if at all).
