The new OWC Atlas CFexpress 4.0 Type B Card Reader can dramatically speed up data transfer times for photographers and other professionals.
With a data transfer speed limited only by Thunderbolt, the OWC Atlas CFexpress Card Reader significantly reduces transfer times. Its performance is further enhanced when paired with an OWC Atlas Ultra memory card, delivering real-world speeds over 3300MB/s.
The OWC Atlas CFexpress Card Reader is not only powerful but also portable. Similar in size and weight to an iPhone , it easily fits into a pocket or gear bag. It’s bus-powered and comes with a USB-C cable, eliminating the need for external power supplies.
The reader is equipped with Innergize technology, enabling users to verify the health status, restore peak performance, and update the firmware of OWC Atlas memory cards. Innergize, a free app from OWC, ensures that the cards are continually operating at their best.
OWC’s card reader remains securely positioned during operation thanks to its non-skid rubber feet, while the inclusion of an OWC ClingOn, a stabilizing device, ensures the USB-C connecting cable is firmly attached. The ClingOn attaches to the cable and device port through an adhesive, ensuring a snug and stable connection.
Over 4x Faster Ingest vs USB 3 Readers
The reader is fanless, with a thermally efficient design for silent operation. Moreover, users can easily confirm the card reader’s use status through an integrated LED.
The card reader supports a wide range of devices and systems, including USB4 and USB-C-equipped Macs, Windows PCs, iPads, Chromebooks, tablets, and smartphones.
