ProGrade Digital has launched its highest-ever-capacity CFexpress Type A card: the new 960GB variant joins the existing 120GB, 420GB and 480GB cards in ProGrade's Gold range. The Gold Type A series is a step up from the company's previous 'Cobalt' offering, with the new cards boasting increased transfer speeds of up to 900MB/s read and 800MB/s write. Furthermore, Gold-series cards are capable of a sustained write speed of 600MB/s, and are even rated for a 200MB/s minimum sustained write rate. The latter qualifies the cards for a VPG200 (video performance guarantee) rating, making them suitable for video recording that requires a minimum 200MB/s sustained write speed.

Additional benefits include automatic performance throttling to prevent overheating, as well as laser-etched unique serial numbering for enhanced component tracking and quality control. Each Type A Gold card is X-ray proof and shock-proof, has an operating temperature range of 14°F to 158°F/ -10°C to 70°C, and is backed by a 3-year warranty.

These new cards give users of CFexpress Type A cameras like the Sony a1 II, a7 IV and a7S III even more memory memory card choice. While it's true that faster CFexpress 4.0 Type A cards are now commonly available, they invariably cost more than version 2.0 cards, and at present no current camera can take advantage of their extra transfer speed.

The new 960GB ProGrade Digital CFexpress 2.0 Type A Gold card is available to buy now, priced at $439.99. The existing 120GB, 240GB and 480GB capacities cost $129.99, $199.99 and $299.99, respectively.
