A Closer Look

When we take the card out of the metal case, we can finally see it in the flesh. The card is made of a plastic body with metal plates on it that create a more premium look and a stronger design. There is a sticker on the front of the card that contains some information on the card, including what most people would care most about, the capacity.

The back of the card features more metal shielding, this time the information is printed directly on the metal plate instead of a sticker.

Taking a look at the pins, we can see a total of 21 pins. This amount of pins might seem excessive at first for a storage device you’d use in a camera; because of the capacity and speed of this type of drive, you need this many pins to take full advantage of it. This card is a CFexpress type B card, this means that it uses PCIe 3.0 x2 and can achieve almost 2GB/s.

For the sake of comparison, here’s the card is next to some other storage formats. This comparison shows how impressively small this card is, it’s barely bigger than an SD card and features faster storage and higher capacities.

Taking a brief look at the card reader in more detail, we see that it uses a USB type C interface to connect to a PC and includes the cables you need to do so, including an A to C cable and a C to C cable.

Finally, we will quickly look at the card in the reader. The reader features a spring-loaded mechanism, so to remove the card you need to press it in gently to have it pop out.
