SanDisk launches MagSafe-compatible Phone SSD for creators

SanDisk has introduced the SanDisk Phone SSD, a portable external storage solution designed specifically for digital content creators. The device features MagSafe compatibility, allowing it to attach magnetically to the back of iPhones and other compatible devices.

This integration enables high-resolution direct recording, such as Apple ProRes 4K at 60 fps, directly to the external drive to avoid exhausting a phone's internal memory. The SSD is built for outdoor use with an IP65 rating for dust and water splash resistance, and it is encased in a protective silicone shell.

The device uses the exFAT file system for plug-and-play compatibility across various operating systems, including Windows 10, macOS 14 (Sonoma), iOS 17, and Android 14. It is available in 1TB and 2TB capacities.
