You can easily detect when a device is performing subpar and, and with the spinning disk, you can see is transfer speeds deteriorates over time.ĭisk Speed Test is a very useful product and one cannot complain about the price point. I have run Blackmagic on USB 2, thumb drives, USB 3, and USB C devices to see if I’m getting my money’s worth. On an older MacBook Pro the rates I see are 500 MB/S both read and write, as you would expect. I have tried this on my older mackbooks with SSD and they do scale down as the device is older. On my 2016 MacBook Pro, I am seeing speeds like 1,000+ MB/s write, and 1100+ MB/S read. Since the “volume” is on your Startup Disk, you will see how fast it drive is. In Blackmagic select the disk image mounted. Mount the volume (if it is not already mounted). Make it big enough for Blackmagic to work with (7+ GB) and name it what you will. Create a disk image (.dmg) using the disk utility specifying file->new image->blank image. I found a workaround that will report the rates of the Startup Disk. When Blackmagic tries to read the Startup Disk, you get the message that the device is not writeable, hence you cannot rate the the transfer rates of the drive.

It is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux computers and is supported by a wide range of software applications. The card supports compressed video formats such as ProRes and DNxHD, as well as uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 video, making it ideal for use in both live broadcast and post production. The Blackmagic Design DeckLink Quad 2 is an 8-lane PCIe card that features eight bi-directional 12-bit SD/HD/3G-SDI connectors that are independently configurable to provide any combination of eight capture or playback channels at up to 1080p60. ![]()
