DJI Mavic 3 Cine production kit
Extreme PRO microSDXC 512GB × 4 for the cards plus PRO-G40 1TB for the field offload. The Mavic 3 Cine writes ProRes 422 HQ at ~110 MB/s sustained — the microSDXC handles it cleanly.

Why we supply SanDisk
The specs that matter to UAE buyers.
SanDisk's strength is the broad capture line — from Extreme PRO microSDXC up through the PRO-CINEMA CFexpress Type B and the Professional G-DRIVE external storage family. The brand sits on most professional bags by default and the warranty network is the deepest in the category.
Beyond cards, the Extreme Portable SSD and the Professional PRO-G40 line cover the field-storage and tethered-shoot workflows. We supply both retail and bulk-pack for rental houses and post-production operations.
Product lines
What we keep on the SanDisk pallet.
5 lines we quote the most. Anything else from the SanDisk catalog we source on order through the channel — typically 5–10 business days.
Use cases
Where SanDisk actually lands in UAE deployments.
Real configurations we've quoted and shipped this year. Each scenario maps to a product line above — useful when you're scoping a similar project.
01 02 Sony VENICE 2 cinema kit
PRO-CINEMA CFexpress 1.3TB × 6 for the cards plus a Professional G-DRIVE in the truck for offload. The 1400 MB/s sustained matters for X-OCN XT at the higher data rates.
03 Wedding/event dual-camera workflow
Extreme PRO V90 256GB × 8 across two bodies. Card rotation by ceremony segment so no single card holds all of any one segment — a useful insurance pattern against the rare card failure.
Comparison
SanDisk vs Lexar Professional
Honest side-by-side on the specs UAE buyers ask about most often. We supply both — pick on workload and price, not on logo.

Spec parity does not mean operational parity. Workload profile, firmware revision history, and warranty network in the UAE all matter. Tell us the deployment in the quote and we’ll point at the version that actually fits.
FAQ
SanDisk buyer questions, answered.
Questions that actually come up on quotes. If yours isn't here, WhatsApp us or send the form.
For most REDCODE ratios, yes. PRO-CINEMA's 1400 MB/s sustained handles 16:1 and below. For uncompressed REDCODE workflows, Lexar Diamond's higher 1700 MB/s ceiling provides more headroom.
A specific firmware revision of the Extreme Portable V2 4TB had a documented firmware bug in 2023 that caused data loss under heavy writes. SanDisk patched the firmware. We stock post-patch units only and confirm firmware on every quote.
V60 sustains 60 MB/s minimum write. V90 sustains 90 MB/s minimum. For 4K and 6K ProRes recording on hybrid cameras (Canon R5C, Panasonic GH7), V90 removes the recording-stutter risk. For 4K H.265, V60 is enough.
Historically the most counterfeited memory card brand globally. We source only through authorized channels and provide retail packaging with the SanDisk security seal intact. For high-value orders we provide batch number verification.
Up to 4K H.265 at most consumer drone bitrates, yes. For DJI Inspire 3 ProRes RAW workflows, the spec requirement is closer to CFexpress on the camera body itself, not microSDXC.
G-DRIVE is single-drive Thunderbolt 3, sustained 2500 MB/s. ThunderBlade is RAID-0 4-drive at 2800 MB/s. For single-camera offload, G-DRIVE wins on portability and cost. For multi-camera post bay, ThunderBlade wins on bandwidth.
Limited lifetime warranty. RMA paperwork through us. Production deadline scenarios — we keep swap stock on the 320GB and 640GB PRO-CINEMA SKUs to bridge the RMA window.
