The Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD is ideal for pro audio and production applications for sustained performance users and are the standard for use in video capture with Black Magic cameras, AJA, and more. Some drives drop to 50-60MB/s after their cache is exhausted, but the Mercury Extreme Pro said to be up to 10x faster than what many hard drives deliver today after their peak speed is fatigued with as little as 2-3 percent of the hard drive written. When sustained performance is non-negotiable, the Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD covers users end to end.
When the first Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD launched nearly a decade ago, built to be the fastest, most reliable, and most extended endurance 2.5-inch SATA Solid State Drive available on the market. The evolution of OWC’s premier 2.5-inch SATA SSD continues that legacy with up to 5X faster performance over the entirety of its capacity compared to other drives.

With users’ investment in apps plus time devoted to getting that beloved Mac or PC configured just the way they like, it makes sense for users to maximize the lifespan and longevity of their machines. Revitalizing any Mac or PC with a Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD can transform to like-new performance levels. Built using today’s highest quality NAND flash memory and controller design, the Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD delivers sustained real-world-tested read/write speeds over 500MB/s throughout its storage capacity. From faster boots and application launch times to much-improved system responsiveness, users will love using their “new” computer at a fraction of buying the latest model.
