Whether you’re a filmmaker, photographer, podcaster or social media creator, gear that keeps up with your workflow is key. Sandisk’s Creator Series is a dedicated line of products designed to speed things up for modern content creators navigating multi-device, multiplatform environments.
Whether you create with a phone, drone, action cam or digital camera, Sandisk has a reliable storage solution to help you in capturing, transferring, editing and backing up your work. You have direct control and access, rather than relying on cloud-based storage.
Buyers of Creator Series products receive a trial offer of one month of Adobe Creative Cloud apps or three months of Adobe Lightroom membership depending on which Creator Series product you choose, your work will benefit from apps such as Photoshop, Lightroom and Premiere Pro.
The Creator Series is more than just a set of upgraded storage devices; it’s a full ecosystem built to support every phase of the content creation process with speed, portability and versatility. The line-up includes portable SSDs, high-speed SD and micro SD cards, USB-C flash drives, dual-interface phone drives and large capacity desktop storage, all engineered with creator-focused features.
At the heart of the series is the Sandisk Creator Pro Portable SSD, a compact device that offers up to 4TB of blazing fast storage with read and write speeds up to 2000MB/s, thanks to its USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 interface. It can make high-res edits on images stored on the device while plugged into a compatible computer.
Its durable design includes IP65 water and dust resistance, and it can survive drops from up to three metres, making it a reliable companion for location shoots or field editing. Whether you’re working with JPEGs, Raw files, 4K or 6K footage, this SSD handles demanding workflows with ease and speed.
It makes sense to save and keep a copy of your work, projects and archives on a separate backup device, and the Sandisk Creator Desk Drive delivers desktop-class performance thanks to capacities of 4TB and 8TB. Its stylish design fits neatly into any workspace, while USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity ensures speedy file transfers and smooth access to large media libraries. The drive works great with Apple Time Machine, or use the downloadable Acronis True Image software to set up automatic backups.
At the capture stage, Sandisk has the answer with high-performance memory cards like its Creator SD UHS-II and Creator micro SD cards, available in capacities up to 1TB. With rapid transfer speeds of up to 280MB/s, these cards are optimised for high-resolution recording whether used in a drone, action camera, Android phone or digital camera.
For creatives focused on smartphones, the Creator Phone Drive features both a Lightning connector and a USB Type-C connector, allowing seamless file transfers between iPhones, iPads and USB Type-C devices like Android phones or laptops. It’s available in capacities up to 256GB and is great for creators making content on mobile devices who need quick access and backups on the go. It’s an excellent option to shuttle files between devices or perform quick, on-the-fly backups during shoots or studio sessions.
Backing up these hardware solutions is Sandisk App, a versatile file management software designed to simplify backups, file organisation and device syncing. The software supports automatic backups to Sandisk devices, encrypted folders for secure storage and easy tools for browsing, copying and organising files – making it your digital command centre for content.
The Creator Series is now available on shop.Sandisk.com and arrives at a time when digital storytelling is more dynamic than ever. Whether you’re editing short-form video for social media, managing large podcast archives or shooting cinematic projects with high bit rates, Sandisk’s Creator Series is a smart investment in high performance, efficiency and peace of mind.
