Angelbird is excited to introduce our new AV PRO SE CFexpress B v4 memory cards. Built on the latest CFexpress v4 Type B technology, we set a new benchmark for stable, high-speed performance, redefining the "Standard Edition" of our CFexpress Type B memory cards.

Stability meets performance
At Angelbird, we understand that true performance isn't just about maximum speeds - it's about delivering consistent, stable results throughout the entire creative process. Angelbird's Stable Stream guarantees consistent recording performance across all modes and throughout the entire capacity of the card. These new cards deliver a sustained write speed of up to 3150 MB/s - doubling the speed of our previous CFexpress 2.0 Type B cards. Designed to keep up with various demanding workflows, from fast-paced shoots to data-intensive post-production, they deliver unparalleled and reliable performance for the modern creator.

Transferring data and editing files on the go just became as easy and efficient as it can be. Angelbird has announced the release of their brand new Card Reader PKT. A compact memory card reader that revolutionizes how creative professionals can manage and organize files. It combines enhanced file protection while being functionally versatile when it comes to external recording and expanding data storage. In terms of design, the Card Reader PKT is practical with its lightweight pocket-size that provides robust durability while perfectly complementing on-the-go mobile workflows.

Angelbird's Card Readers PKT support SD, CFexpress Type A, or CFexpress Type B cards with significantly reduced transfer times and seamless offloading. The readers also utilize universal USB 3.2 connectivity and reach speeds of up to 20 Gb/s (up to 5 Gb/s for the Card Reader PKT SD). This means the readers can process large amounts of data in a matter of seconds, freeing up time for creators to focus on important tasks.

Angelbird Technologies GmbH enters the CFexpress Type A market with a single 1 TB card and matching accessories. Angelbird introduces a single 1 TB sized CFexpress Type A card engineered for use with Sony Alpha and FX camera lines. The AV PRO CFexpress Type A | 1 TB is the highest available capacity CFexpress Type A media on the market. With Sustained Write performance of 650 MB/s, the card provides critical speed and performance necessary for lengthy, high-data rate video recording, stills and burst photography in up to 4K+ RAW.

To achieve the maximum potential from the CFexpress Type A card format, Angelbird engineers leaned into their extensive experience innovating custom camera-specific media solutions for industry-leading camera manufacturers. That experience laid the foundation to begin the engineering process with expertise and laser focus on the Sony Alpha and FX lines of CFexpress Type A cameras. For this endeavor, Angelbird designed a custom-built SiP (System in Package) circuit configuration, which, combined with other factors, paved the way for the highest capacity CFexpress Type A card to date- a card to support the extensive cinematic work being captured by Sony shooters.

Angelbird Technologies GmbH announces the release of Media Tank, a new memory card case designed to offer hard-shell protection for up to four memory cards. Media Tank is available for different types of card format: Media Tank SD, Media Tank CFast, and Media Tank CFexpress Type B. Media Tank from Angelbird takes protection and design to new levels—raising the bar on quality for professional memory cards cases. Memory cards are considered necessary gear for photographers and filmmakers, not only for their price value, but also for the content they hold. Angelbird designed Media Tank to be slim and lightweight while also protective and secure inside and out.

The hard-aluminium case features a durability-tested Lock-Solid locking mechanism and double ring loops for pad locks or carabiners. Inside is designed to securely hold up to four SD, CFast, or CFexpress cards. Precision-cut foam inserts with generous finger grooves that maintain just the right amount of tension—balancing easy card access with a firm and secure grip to keep cards in place.

Angelbird Technologies GmbH releases the latest edition of their flagship SDXC UHS-II media cards in NEW larger capacities: AV PRO SD MK2 V60 in 512 GB and 1 TB; and AV PRO SD MK2 V90 in 512 GB. An SD card is an essential gear. If you work in production, or with a range of camera models, an SD card can offer the widest range of compatibility and versatility--since most camera models and digital recording devices utilize this legacy card format. While SD cards possess the ability to capture 4K+ RAW photo and video content, the decision to record at high-resolution settings often comes with a trade-off due to capacity limits.

Supporting the increased demand for higher resolution content, Angelbird releases their largest capacity SDXC UHS-II cards available in up to 1 TB. The AV PRO SD MK2 V60 and V90 cards are fully capable of capturing high bit-rate files with high write speeds sustained throughout the capacity of the card.

With 12K+ RAW media production on the near horizon, Angelbird's AV PRO CFexpress MK2 Type B technology offers the speed, endurance and high capacity to meet the production demands of tomorrow's camera technology. Relying on the Angelbird Y2 processor to deliver sustained high speed recording of high bit-rate advanced cinematography, video or burst photography, these cards deliver stable and reliable speeds throughout the entire capacity of the card for smooth, drop-free results and quick large-file offloading.

Our flagship CFexpress Type B cards deliver the highest-quality frame captures from demanding 8K RAW 120fps settings, with the potential to easily take on the demands of shooting 12K+ RAW.

Angelbird Technologies, the premier developer of camera-specific media solutions for professional creatives, announces the addition of two CFexpress 2.0 Type B memory cards to their high-performance lineup of AV PRO media solutions. The introduction of this new media format required us taking a step back and first asking questions that assessed the real-world challenges of content creation. "I know first-hand that you don't get a second shot at a true creative moment. With CFexpress we saw an opportunity to improve the technology, not just offer an amped-up, hot new form factor," says Angelbird co-founder and CEO, Roman Rabitsch.

"We start with an understanding of the increased demands of recording at ultra-high fps in resolutions up to 12K and beyond. We needed a powerful processor, a way to manage heat by-product, and a card that wouldn't drain battery life." From the beginning, we focused on sustained performance which led us to the Y1 controller - a super-processor that wasn't readily compatible with CFexpress technology. After long engineering trials at our media lab in Austria, we succeeded. We are now proud to offer unique CFexpress media solutions with the highest sustained speed and precision performance extended throughout the entire capacity of the card.

Angelbird Technologies, the premier developer of camera-specific media for professional creatives, announces the addition of CFexpress Type B memory cards to their high-performance lineup of AV PRO media solutions.The call for quick adoption of advanced digital video production standards to 6K, 8K and beyond, is being driven by high-profile international broadcasting as well as an increased need for industrial data processing and performance requirements. CFexpress memory media meets the high-speed demands of new technology (media that can write data at a minimum of 400 MB/sec).

It also mirrors the XQD form factor-- allowing select cameras that currently utilize XQD to now also accept CFexpress with a firmware update. But different from XQD, is that the CFexpress adopts the PCIe Gen 3 interface standards promoted by the CompactFlash Association. Angelbird's AV PRO CFX and AV PRO CFX XT offer read/write speeds up to 1700 MB/s and 1400 MB/s. CFexpress memory cards perform at speeds 3.5x faster than CFast technology- the current memory card leader for high-bitrate video production.

ARRI is introducing the ARRI Edition AV PRO AR 256 CFast 2.0 card by Angelbird. The card has been designed and certified for use in the ALEXA Mini and AMIRA camera systems and can be used for ProRes and MXF/ARRIRAW recording. ARRI has worked closely with Angelbird Technologies GmbH, a hi-tech company based in Vorarlberg, Austria. Angelbird is no stranger to film production, and some of their gear can be found at ARRI Rental European locations. The company's young yet experienced team has a passion for quality and great attention to detail.

"Many of the CFast cards we tested delivered good results, but it usually takes the manufacturers a few attempts to stabilize their performance for high data-rate write patterns," says Oliver Temmler, Product Manager for Storage Media at the ARRI headquarters in Munich, Germany. "Angelbird really stood out-they listened to us closely and quickly determined which parameters they had to tweak."

Every modern video shooter needs to have reliable kit that functions efficiently and handles well-only this way can you focus on your creativity and craft. In media, traditional SSDs have provided a solid, affordable, high-performance solution for professionals. Atomos have pioneered this with their open media policy on their devices-allowing you the freedom to use different SATA-based SSD media to deliver 4K for the cost of HD. This has allowed us to push the boundaries of technology and price/performance.

Angelbird has previously delivered the high performance, enterprise-class 4K RAW in partnership with Atomos-built for the highest level of performance and reliability to match demanding 4K, 2K high frame rate, HDR, and RAW workflows up to 5.7K. Now Angelbird has again worked with Atomos to deliver the AtomX SSDmini, offering incredible performance and SATA interface but with a much smaller form factor. Break free from the traditional 2.5" drive form factor that has been around for years and has its origins in IT systems. The AtomX SSDmini utilizes the same SATA III connector but reduces the dimensions to be only 7 mm high and 80 mm long.

Austrian SSD maker Angelbird unveiled two new PCIe SSDs at Computex, the Wings MX2 and the Wings X2. The Wings MX2 is simple SSD with a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 host interface, and similar chops to today's M.2 (32 Gb/s) SSDs; and should appeal to enthusiasts with older boards that lack M.2 slots. The Wings X2, on the other hand, is a RAID-on-a-stick card. Its main PCB is essentially a SATA RAID card with two SATA 6 Gb/s back-planes. With two 2.5-inch SSDs (possibly the company's own Wings or SSDWrk-series drives installed, the controller puts out a host-abstract RAID 0 volume.

Austrian tweaking specialists o.v.e.r.clockers.at today set a new world record in the renowned performance test PCMark05. Throughout the entire project, Noctua fans, CPU coolers and thermal compound played a key role.

During last Friday's live event hosted by the Austrian SSD manufacturer Angelbird, o.v.e.r.clockers.at already managed to break the previous world record in Futuremark's popular benchmarking suite PCMark05, but since their best CPU and motherboard fell victim to the extreme tweaking, the Austrian overclocking specialists failed to pass the
60.000 point mark. Today, o.v.e.r.clockers.at set out to make another attempt, but US overclockers had topped their previous record overnight and pushed the bar to a breathtaking 62.759 points - more than the Austrian's had hoped to achieve. Taking up the challenge nonetheless, o.v.e.r.clockers.at squeezed the absolute maximum out of their system.

Japanese company Orange Systems announced a new modular PCI Express SSD, the "Wings" series, which is a collection of products: the PCIe SSD card, its SSD subunits that have to be purchased separately, and those subunits in hard cases that turn them into 2.5-inch simple SSDs. To begin with, Angelbird has three PCIe SSD main card variants: "Lite", 16 GB, and 32 GB. These cards are basically PCI Express x4 SATA 3 Gb/s RAID cards that have SATA power+data interfaces on the card. The 16 GB and 32 GB cards have a localized SSD subunit on the board, while the "lite" variant has no localized subunit, and relies entirely on attached subunits.

These subunits are basically 2.5-inch SSD PCBs stripped of their cases, which Orange Systems refers to as Wings Expansion Cartridges, which are basically SandForce SF-1220 driven SSDs with MLC NAND flash, available in capacities of 60 GB, 115 GB, and 240 GB. When attached in pairs to the Wings PCIe SSD card, the card's main controller runs them in a RAID 0 configuration that is abstract to the host, delivering increased performance. Lastly, these "Expansion Cartridges" are available with their outer shells, branded as "Crest SSDs".
