Sandisk announced the Extreme PRO CFexpress 4.0 Type B storage card on April 20, 2026. The company positions this new drive for professional video production workflows. The product line targets users who require high-speed data transfer for demanding capture scenarios.
The Extreme PRO CFexpress 4.0 Type B offers six capacity options. Buyers can choose from 128GB, 256GB, 400GB, 1TB, 2TB, or 4TB configurations. The drive delivers a sequential read speed of 3700MB/s. It provides a sequential write speed of 3500MB/s.
VPG certification levels depend on the selected capacity tier. Small capacity models receive VPG-400 and VPG-800 certifications. Capacities of 1TB and above carry the VPG-1600 certification. These ratings define the minimum sustained write speeds for video recording.
New drive delivers 12K video support and high sequential read speeds for professionals
Sandisk claims the drive supports 12K high-speed shooting. This capability addresses the needs of professional cameras that capture extremely high-resolution footage. The high bandwidth ensures the card can keep up with rapid data generation.
The announcement does not list a specific price for the new storage cards. The company also did not provide a general availability date for the product. Buyers will need to wait for further distribution details to purchase the drive.
