Toshiba's Exceria Pro SD Cards Claim 'World's Fastest' Write Speeds Of 240MB Per Second

Toshiba's Exceria Pro SD Cards Claim 'World's Fastest' Write Speeds Of 240MB Per Second

There are a number of SD memory cards available in which some offer larger-than-usual storage capacity, while others boast wireless connectivity. This time, Toshiba is coming out with an ultra-fast series of SD cards that they’re calling Exceria Pro, and the company is claiming that the new SD cards are the fastest around, with speeds hitting as fast 240 MB/s. These cards are aimed at professionals, such as photographers who need photos saved quickly.

Toshiba says it's been able to achieve the super-quick read/write speeds of the Exceria Pro SD cards by integrating a newly-developed controller which is compliant with the UHS-II (Ultra High Speed II) standard. This means the 16 GB and 32 GB cards can write at up to 240 MB/s and read at 260 MB/s.

However, while this should be good news for anyone who needs to save a lot of data quickly, it's not quite that simple. That's because we're not aware of any cameras that are currently able to make use of these blazing speeds. So videographers and photographers who would like the added speed to help with things like continuous burst shooting and recording 4K video, might have to wait a little while for the hardware to catch up.

Besides the Exceria Pro cards, there will also be some regular Exceria SDXC cards that will have capacities of 32GB or 64GB. These will also operate under the UHS-II standard, but they’ll have a maximum write speed of 120 MB/s.

No pricing has yet been revealed, but it’s said that the 64GB Exceria SDXC card will cost around $250 and both the Exceria and Exceria Pro SD memory cards are due to be released in Japan in October, and then Europe by the end of 2013.
