Angelbird 500GB AtomX SSDmini

Angelbird 500GB AtomX SSDmini
Custom High-Speed Solid-State Drive – 20% Smaller Footprint, Stable Stream Technology & Cinema 4K/5.7K Raw Workflow Optimization
The Angelbird 500GB AtomX SSDmini is a highly specialized, ultra-compact solid-state storage drive precision-engineered to integrate seamlessly with the modern Atomos ecosystem of monitor-recorders. Measuring 20% smaller than a standard 2.5-inch SSD, this low-profile media drive sits completely flush when slotted directly into the Atomos Ninja V, Ninja Flame, Ninja Inferno, and Shogun Inferno. By avoiding the unwieldy overhang of legacy drives, it preserves a tight, balanced camera rig configuration while delivering the ultra-high continuous data throughput rates required for uncompromising cinema production sets, commercial broadcasts, and professional run-and-gun filmmaking.

Despite its streamlined miniature form factor, the AtomX SSDmini makes no compromises regarding raw mechanical power. Utilizing an advanced SATA III architecture anchored by Angelbird’s signature Stable Stream technology, the drive eliminates latency drops to guarantee absolute frame-for-frame capture consistency across dense data streams. Capable of recording up to 5.7K ProRes RAW and high-frame-rate 4K60p video without dropping a single frame, this media asset features a highly durable casing built to withstand extreme environmental field hazards.

Key Features & Recording Performance
Tailored Atomos Form Factor: Custom-profiled to fit perfectly and lock tightly into Ninja V, Ninja Flame, Ninja Inferno, and Shogun Inferno units. Backward and cross-system compatible with the Shogun Studio, Sumo 19, and Sumo 19M production monitors when deploying an optional adapter handle accessory.

Pro-Tier Stable Stream Performance: Engineered with specialized firmware algorithms that maintain flat, non-fluctuating read/write pipelines across the entire capacity of the drive, preventing sudden write degradation during long continuous takes.

Rapid Sustained Throughput: Delivers up to 560 MB/s sequential read speeds (520 MB/s sustained) and up to 540 MB/s sequential write speeds (500 MB/s sustained) to easily process massive master files.

Direct SATA III Post-Production Workflow: Built with a standard high-durability SATA III internal connector link, letting you dock the drive directly into any standard computer bay or offloading cradle for rapid file ingest straight to your NLE timeline.

Cinema-Grade Environment Shielding: Built with an industrial-grade chassis layout that is physically shockproof, X-ray proof, magnetic proof, and optimized for extreme operating temperature variations.
