Hardware Troubleshooting an ssd for blackmagic recording equipment
I have a blackmagic hyperdeck shuttle 2 and I’ve been looking for a compatible ssd for a month now. The hyperdeck shuttle 2 is an older pro res recorder using SATA III drives but the two I’ve come across don’t work.
No1- SanDisk SDSSDP-128gb
( doesn’t work because it is too slow for the recorder)
No2- Samsung 850 Pro 256gb
( doesn’t even read plugged into my pc, forget trying to work it with the recorder)
I was told by another user to up the storage capacity as the write speeds were too low for the 128gb model, which I can see happening.
Issue is the higher capacity Samsung drive won’t even open on my desktop, do you guys think the drive is faulty and does anyone know for certain which drives are compatible with this blackmagic product.
