When you plug MultiDock into the HyperDeck External Disk port, it can see the SSDs and use them for recording. The secret to using Blackmagic MultiDock 10G with HyperDeck Extreme is the high speed USB‑C port on the rear panel called External Disk. If you're working with HyperDeck Extreme, you can also use Blackmagic MultiDock 10G to get compatibility with SSDs for interchange between HyperDeck models.

Mechanical hard disks are used on laptop computers and are extremely large and very low cost. Blackmagic MultiDock 10G is also fantastic for backup as you can insert mechanical hard disks into the slots and backup direct to the disks.

That means you can add up to 4 media disks to editing software such as DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro X, Premiere Pro CC, Avid Media Composer, Autodesk Smoke and more. SSDs are so incredibly fast it's no longer necessary to use RAID arrays to get enough speed for editing. Each disk slot also features an attractive illuminated disk access indicator so you can see when your disks are being accessed. Blackmagic MultiDock 10G even supports the RAID software built in to most operating systems, so you can customize your disk array for your needs. The built in power supply ensures no power is used from laptop batteries and it has enough power to run 4 high performance disks all at the same time for use in RAID configurations. Unlike consumer disk arrays, Blackmagic MultiDock is a compact and robust 1 rack unit all metal design that can be quickly installed into equipment racks. That's perfect for dual computer use or increased speed. Even though you get all 4 disks connected to a single USB‑C connection, you can also split Blackmagic MultiDock 10G and get 2 disks on one USB‑C connection and 2 disks on the second USB-C connection. MultiDock features a completely independent disk interface chip per disk slot so you never get slowdowns because of SATA bandwidth issues. That’s more than enough bandwidth to handle the highest resolution video formats including 8K in H.265 from HyperDeck Extreme 8K. Extreme 10 Gb/s USB‑C Speedīlackmagic MultiDock uses advanced USB‑C technology so you get blazingly fast transfer speeds to your computer at up to 10 Gb/s with a single cable connection.

Best of all the driver is built into the operating system so no extra software is needed. With Blackmagic MultiDock 10G, it’s possible to plug in any brand of 2.5 inch solid state disk or if you need high capacity backup at low cost, a regular 2.5 inch laptop hard disk can be used. This means you get reliable, fast recording with the speed for the largest video files.

Even a single solid state disk is much faster than a disk array because the memory based storage is accessed instantly without the mechanical lag, allowing a single SSD to record an entire event or film shoot. Solid state disks are the perfect storage solution for television because they are very fast and extremely large in size. You can even stripe multiple disks together for a super fast RAID array. It's also the perfect solution to add SSD compatibility to HyperDeck Extreme 8K as it will let you interchange disks between HyperDeck Studio models.

Blackmagic MultiDock 10G is perfect for accessing media recorded with the URSA Mini Pro SSD Recorder. Because Blackmagic MultiDock features 4 independent disk slots, you can mount all your media from a shoot all at the same time.
