Truth in Numbers

Big theoretical performance numbers are certainly eye-catchers, but they are misleading when your workflow requires real-world speed. That’s why we take the extra time to run OWC flash storage solutions through intensive performance testing, and we share our test setup and parameters. Truthfully listing Atlas Ultra CFexpress cards for reliable peak performance up to 3000MB/s write, 3650MB/s read, and up to 1500MB/s sustained write speed defines our commitment to the “OWC Difference,” which ensures these CFexpress Type B cards will deliver the performance you are counting on.

Maximum Sequential and Sustained Read/Write Performances Delivered by OWC Atlas Ultra CFexpress 4.0 Cards

Details matter when it comes to making an investment into a memory card for your camera. That is why OWC Atlas Ultra CFexpress 4.0 cards leverage the CFA 4.0 specification that is backward compatible with CFA 2.0 (i.e. PCIe Gen3) cameras and readers of today, and forward compatible with CFA 4.0 (i.e. PCIe Gen4) cameras and readers of the future delivering the highest performance that you deserve.

After intensive stress tests with multiple full capacity cycles, the Atlas FXR reader still delivers consistent sustained 1400MB/s read and 1200MB/s write performance from a 2TB Atlas Ultra CFexpress card while maintaining a safe temperature.
