Nextorage Corporation will begin selling the AtomX SSDmini “NPS-AS2TB” in late October. The Nextorage AtomX SSDmini is a compact form factor SSD specifically designed for Atomos recorders. It’s 20% smaller than conventional 2.5-inch SSDs and neatly fits into the compact media slot of the Ninja V, Ninja V+, Shogun 7 and Neon devices. Using an adapter handle, it’s even compatible with the Sumo 19, Ninja CAST and Shogun Studio 2.
The NPS-AS2TB is a 2,000 GB high-capacity model designed for users who need to do longer recordings and capture lots of data.
With a stated read speed of 550 MB/s and write speed of 500 MB/s, the NPS-AS Series delivers consistent performance and is certified to record in all codecs supported by ATOMOS recorders, so you can shoot in the highest grade video and RAW formats without losing frames. The NINJA V+ can record up to 8Kp30, 5Kp60, and 4Kp120; the NINJA V can record up to 30p ProRes RAW HQ 6K, 4Kp60 and 2Kp240.
The NPS-AS2TB has a rugged die-cast aluminum exterior that has passed the toughest heat dissipation and drop tests. The connector, tested over 3,000 times, is more durable than standard SATA connectors, and the enclosure’s shock resistance is up to 1,500 G/0.5 ms.
Compatibility
The NPS-AS series is the only AtomX SSDmini certified by the ATOMOS verification lab, and it also features a built-in SATA III connector, making it compatible with all ATOMOS monitor recorders. To use it with SUMO 19, AtomX CAST, or SHOGUN STUDIO 2, you simply screw the AtomX SSDmini handle into the NPS-AS series body.
Once the handle is attached, you can easily insert and remove the drive without a Master Caddy II.
Availability
The NPS-AS2TB will be available on B&H in late October 2024.
NPS-AS Series includes 500 GB and 1TB models and is available now.
