Element Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type B is a premium memory card designed with professional filmmakers in mind. This Exascend card features innovative CFexpress 4.0 technology. This technology enables unprecedentedly high continuous read speeds of 3300 MB/s and write speeds of 900 MB/s.
This allows you to record 8K/12K resolution at up to 120 frames per second without any frame loss. The implementation of RAID ECC technology ensures the recovery of corrupted data, increasing the security of stored information.
The Element Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type B also features a robust design that is resistant to dust, shock, harsh weather conditions, and X-rays.
Integrated Exascend technologies, such as Adaptive Thermal Control™ and SuperCruise™, eliminate problems related to overheating and data loss, ensuring fast, efficient, and comfortable use.
Exascend was founded in 2016, beginning its operations by providing robust SSD solutions for industrial and enterprise applications. The experience gained allowed it to expand its offerings to include reliable memory cards for the photo/video industry.
Thanks to collaboration with leading camera manufacturers, Exascend provides modern and robustly secured data storage systems.
SuperCruise™ - Continuous recording of large volumes of data, as is the case with video recording, can result in a sudden drop in performance or interruption in recording. Exascend technology eliminates this problem, guaranteeing unparalleled stability even during the most demanding applications.
Unlike many systems from competing brands, which maintain performance only during the initial recording stage, the unique SuperCruise™ algorithm ensures that the data medium's parameters are maintained until the job is completed.
RAID ECC (Error-Correcting Code) – a combination of two advanced data protection technologies. It allows detecting and correcting errors that may occur during data transmission on two levels, both by storing in multiple flash memory blocks via RAID5 and by using an additional ECC algorithm.
This allows for the recovery of even severely damaged data. Furthermore, the technology improves system performance and extends the lifespan of SSDs.
This innovative Exascend technology is powered by a patented adaptive algorithm that precisely adapts to environmental conditions. It constantly monitors and adjusts the drive's overall performance during operation – as temperatures rise, the algorithm slightly reduces performance, and then increases it again when temperatures cool.
Maintaining this delicate balance translates to the highest consistent performance, without any user or device intervention.
Afterburner™ - Exascend's innovative solution that enables faster data writes and reads thanks to the use of SLC cache. SSDs are characterized by slower write speeds, which is a direct result of the characteristics of NAND flash memory, in which writing data requires erasing existing information in the target memory unit.
Afterburner™ allocates segments of NAND memory units to SLC mode and only then methodically transfers them to other storage sectors. SLC cache memory allows for the storage of individual bits of data, making it considered the most efficient and reliable – this mode significantly accelerates write and erase processes, ensuring an optimal balance between performance and longevity.
Furthermore, Afterburner™ technology automatically transfers data from the SLC cache to 3D TLC NAND flash memory without impacting performance. In the context of regular use, Afterburner™ facilitates the efficient management of daily write operations by SSDs.
Data Retention Plus™ - SSDs store data in NAND flash memory cells, which are characterized by a limited number of write and erase cycles. Over time, cells become damaged, which becomes visible during overheating (higher voltage) or extended write and erase cycles.
However, this process can be slowed down by monitoring cell wear and tear evenly. An algorithm developed by Exascend dynamically refreshes data stored on flash memory devices, taking into account the current memory state.
Drive wear becomes more even, and data is adequately protected. Even under maximum loads, this reduces the risk of data integrity loss resulting from the natural degradation of flash memory.
Smartstream™ - Exascend's unique technology allows for seamless handling of continuous shooting and extended recording on the same card, balancing performance and optimal battery life. Smartstream™ analyzes the current data write pattern in NAND flash memory, enabling the selection of the optimal SSD processor clock frequency.
This increases performance and energy efficiency, which in turn translates to more stable writes and longer battery life.
Conformal Coating – a conformal coating technology that increases the card's resistance to external threats, such as dust and moisture. The coating, meeting rigorous military standards, is applied to both the circuit board and integrated components.
The coating process itself provides a uniform protective layer across the entire drive, except for the connectors.
