How fast is the PRO-G40?
Connected over Thunderbolt 3, the PRO-G40 sustains up to 2700 MB/s read and 1900 MB/s write, fast enough to work directly from the drive on demanding timelines. On a USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) connection, it runs at up to 1050 MB/s read and 1000 MB/s write, so you still get quick transfers on machines without a Thunderbolt port. The drive picks the right mode automatically based on how you connect it.
