SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD Card for 4K Recording
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card is a high-performance microSDXC UHS-I memory card offering read speeds of up to 200MB/s and write speeds of up to 90MB/s. Its U3, V30 and A2 ratings make it suitable for compatible action cameras, drones, Android devices and cameras recording 4K UHD or Full HD video.
A slow memory card can interrupt recording or leave you waiting when transferring large video files. This Extreme PRO card is designed for people who need faster performance than an ordinary storage card, whether they are recording an outdoor adventure, flying a drone, shooting fast-action photographs or moving media to a computer.
Why Choose the SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD Card?
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card combines professional-level speed ratings with a practical 64GB capacity. It provides enough space for shorter video projects, photographs, mobile applications and important files without requiring you to invest in a much larger card.
Its 64GB capacity also works well for creators who prefer rotating several memory cards between cameras instead of storing an entire project on one high-capacity card.
Up to 200MB/s Read and 90MB/s Write Speed
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card delivers sequential read performance of up to 200MB/s and sequential write performance of up to 90MB/s. Fast read performance helps shorten file-transfer and media-offload times, while the write speed supports photography and compatible high-resolution video recording.
Maximum performance requires a compatible device or reader. SanDisk recommends pairing the card with its Professional PRO-READER SD and microSD reader to achieve maximum transfer speeds. The reader is sold separately, and actual performance varies according to the device, interface, file type and operating conditions.
V30 and U3 Performance for 4K UHD Video
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card carries both UHS Speed Class 3 and Video Speed Class 30 ratings. V30 identifies a minimum sustained video-writing performance of 30MB/s, making the card suitable for real-time 4K UHD and Full HD recording on compatible devices.
This makes it a strong option for recording sporting events, outdoor adventures, travel videos, drone footage and other scenes where dropped frames could spoil an important clip. Your camera must support microSDXC UHS-I cards and the selected recording mode.
A2 Rating for Faster Application Performance
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card is A2 rated for improved random read and write performance. This can help supported Android smartphones and tablets load and operate applications stored on the card more efficiently.
A2 performance requires compatible hardware, firmware and operating-system support. Devices without full A2 support can still use the card, but application performance may be lower.
Designed for Action Cameras and Drones
The card is well suited to action cameras and drones that require U3 or V30 media. Its combination of fast recording performance and compact size makes it practical for aerial footage, vehicle-mounted cameras and outdoor filming.
Always check the equipment manufacturer’s recommended card capacity, speed class and formatting requirements before recording an important project.
Durable Storage for Demanding Environments
SanDisk designs its Extreme PRO microSDXC cards to be waterproof, shockproof, temperature-proof and X-ray-proof. This added protection is useful when the card is carried through airports, used outdoors or exposed to changing weather conditions.
Although the card is designed for demanding environments, important files should still be backed up regularly. Physical protection does not replace a proper backup routine.
SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD Card Compatibility
The SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSD card works with devices that support microSDXC or microSDXC UHS-I cards. Typical compatible products include Android smartphones and tablets, action cameras, drones, digital cameras, handheld gaming systems and laptops with suitable card readers.
A full-size SD adapter is included, allowing the microSD card to be used with compatible cameras, laptops and card readers that accept standard SDXC cards. The adapter does not increase speed; performance still depends on the card reader and host device.
