Divide by 8 for MB/s, multiply that by 60 for MB/min...

I got this USB-C hub/SSD Enclosure that magnetically attaches to the back of my phone. It holds 2tb. I use it to offload my Cine drone with the phone as the computer, usb C to drone, USB c from hub to phone. Now it can take a few minutes, even with an SSD to offload 512gb, so best start with a full charge on the phone.

I has already look this website but i has not see what i'm looking for (the size/per minute for 6k D-Log, HDR and HLG most heaviest scenarios). So with this, i do not understand your opperation sorry...

Hmm interested... So you have 2TB inside and with this the data that is placed directly on the SSD and not in the storage of the drone (sorry, but first time i discover magnetic SSD's and i has before see this thinking to a another system...)? And possibility with this to put a SD card and a microSD as extension? Also, how much taking your files at 6k record for a duration of a full battery of the drone?

Sorry I suppose I was not clear. I use this to remove the files from my Cine drone, so it can film more. You unfortunately cannot hook it directly to the drone. When I film in ProRes, usually I end up getting around like 512 gb per session before I run out of drone battery power. I have about a 50/50 ratio of flying time transiting to where I want to film and time filming. With 512gb, you usually run out of batteries you can carry in your backpack. I carry 5. If you want to use a smaller card, you can use a hub like this to dump the card contents onto the SSD. It does have built in card readers for both SD and SD Micro.

Interesting! I also have a 1tb sd card installed in the drone which is drone selectable for storage. I'm not a pro hence don't use very much storage for the little flying I do. I still like the idea of your external storage though. Which 2tb nvme ssd did you use?

I got the

TEAMGROUP MP44S SSD 2TB​

off Amazon last time in December. They are $135 now. No issues transferring. I also use it for videos when I travel overseas. While the airlines have a selection of video the terminals do not. 8 hours at T4 in Heathrow is beyond boring. My last flight down to Namibia was 43 hours flying/terminals. Nice to have your own stuff to watch. I am obviously not the target market for much of their entertainment.
