  • 20Gbps USB speed records 4K ProRes without lag

Magnetic Portable SSD for iPhone

The Transcend ESD420 1TB attaches magnetically to MagSafe‑compatible iPhones, giving photographers, travelers and content creators instant extra storage without cables. Its compact form factor keeps 4K ProRes footage, high‑resolution photos and documents close at hand during outdoor shoots or daily commutes. The drive draws power directly from the host device, so no separate charger is required.

Plug‑and‑Play USB‑C Installation

A single USB Type‑C connection delivers both data and power with no drivers or software to install. The magnetic clip holds firmly to the phone or a magnetic‑compatible case, but it will not attach to non‑magnetic surfaces or devices lacking MagSafe support. Users without a magnetic case must add one before the drive can be secured.

1TB Capacity for 4K and 8K Workflows

The 1TB drive comfortably stores hours of 4K ProRes video, large RAW photo libraries and project files, while the 20Gbps USB interface keeps transfer waits short. When the library grows beyond the available space, the drive fills up and older material must be offloaded to a desktop or cloud archive. Larger capacities up to 4TB exist in the same series, but this unit is fixed at 1TB.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the ESD420 is delivering the 20Gbps transfer rate after connecting it to my iPhone?

The ESD420 reaches up to 20Gbps over its USB 20Gbps interface; verify the rate by running a file-transfer test with a large 4K ProRes clip and checking the sustained read/write figures in a benchmark app.

What ships with the ESD420 and what must I provide separately for magnetic attachment?

The drive itself is supplied; a MagSafe-compatible iPhone or a magnetic-compatible case is required for the magnetic clip to hold securely.

Which ESD420 capacity should I choose for extended 4K and 8K video projects?

The ESD420 is offered up to 4TB; select the largest capacity that fits your budget to store the most high-resolution footage without offloading.
