The article discusses the Planck, touted as the world's smallest phone-first SSD, which the writer tested over two weeks. Priced at $125 for 1TB and $200 for 2TB, it's positioned as an economical alternative to expensive phone storage upgrades. The Planck is easy to use, with plug-and-play functionality across multiple devices including MacBooks, iPhones, Androids, and cameras. Benchmarked read/write speeds average around 980 MB/s, just shy of the manufacturer’s claims, indicating it's suitable for high-quality video capturing and editing workflows for content creators.
Considering Apple charges about $500 to upgrade eligible iPhone models to 1TB of storage, the expense of the Planck may be worth it for content creators.
The Planck SSD is a simple plug-and-play affair; almost any device that supports USB-C data transfer works seamlessly, making it versatile for creators.
After testing the Planck SSD for around two weeks, I can confidently say that it has changed how I capture and edit videos.
Benchmarking the SSD with Blackmagic's Disk Speed Test revealed read/write speeds averaging around 980 MB/s, which is nearly on par with the manufacturer's claims.
