If you are a lover of photography, editing, video ... you will surely know that we live in a time where it is no longer strange that any camera can record and take photos with an impressive capacity, a time where 4K recording and playback is something that It has gone from very high-end cameras to being present in many devices. The downside to all of this is that we now need to be able to transfer image data at a much higher speed.
To remedy this problem I want to tell you about the new standard UHS III which was just created by the SD Association. Basically what they propose is to be able to transfer large amounts of data in a very short time, specifically they are talking about transfer speeds that can reach up to 624 MB per second. As a detail, tell you that the current standard, the UHS-II, offers a maximum speed that ranges between 200 and 300 MB per second.
A UHS-III SD card can double the data transfer speed of any current counterpart.
Once on the market, the UHS-III standard will be compatible with SDXC and SDHC formats as well as older SD specificationsIn other words, if you have an SD card reader of this type, it will be able to transfer and read data between the card and the device in question, whatever the SD card you insert, its type and its age.
As a historical reminder, just tell you that the first standard for SD cards that was launched, we talk about UHS-I, Back in 2010 it promised speeds, at that time impressive, of up to 104 MB / s, a speed that at the time was already tripled by the UHS-II which reached 312 MB / s. Nowadays, UHS III is capable of offering speeds of up to 624 MB / s.
