External Hard Drives & Internal Hard Drives are a necessity for modern Video & Audio workflows, and Markertek carries Solid State and HDD from the leading manufacturers. Hard Drives come in an array of transfer rates & protocols, as well as storage capacities. Connectivity protocols include USB, FireWire, Thunderbolt, Ethernet, eSATA just to name a few. Most drives can be used as standalone storage space, mirrored or RAID configured.

SSD (Solid State Storage Drives) have no moving parts and store data and large files on flash memory, while HDD (Hard Disk Drives) use a mechanical, arm to write data to a spinning metallic "platter." HDD come in varieties that spin at different rates, and the faster they spin, the higher the data transfer rate. Early NLEs relied on 10,000rpm drives for video transfer.

SSD offer even faster transfer rates and are much more stable in mobile environments, and are widely used in laptops and video field recorders like the Atomos line. Both types of drives can be used internally or externally, but unlike HDD, SSD won't break or corrupt data if jostled or dropped while writing files when connected to your computer.

Markertek is proud to carry ruggedized external hard drives for any operating system including portable hard drives for mobile use, desktop computer and RAID solutions from brand like LaCie, Glyph and G-Technology just to name a few.
