There are amazing cameras and phones that all shoot 4K and are a lot more affordable than ever before allowing us to produce much higher quality content without the need for a crazy feature film budgets.

The thing is, there are a lot out there and they are definitely not created equally.

BH was kind enough to let me wander their store in search of the best hard drive for 4K video editing and I managed to narrow it down to my top 4.

I dont want to have to copy it over to my computer, edit, render, delete footage, etc.

Just plug it in, edit directly from it as a scratch drive, and unplug when done.

Now supporting USB 3.1 Gen 2, it has theoretical speeds of up to 540mbs.

Picking it up caused a second laugh as its also a lot lighter than it looks.

The 250GB starts around 130, the 500GB is about 200, the 1TB is about 400 and the 2TB is about 800.

Its seriously tiny and light and looks nice next to my metal laptops while also being priced sort of right in the middle.

And the cheap WD for 360 for only 1TB version is actually very expensive.
