Can you use a 4TB Samsung EVO 870 SSD with an Atomos Ninja V and Andycine Lunchbox 2?

So I was thinking, Can you use a 4TB Samsung EVO 870 SSD with an Atomos Ninja V and Andycine Lunchbox 2? Well, the answer is no.

However, I though it was worth testing as a 4TB Lunchbox 2 for my Ninja V would have been awesome, as I record a lot of 4K 60FPS using ProRes 422 HQ.

The reason why this combination does not work is because the PCB from inside the 4TB EVO 870 is too big for the inside of the Lunchbox 2.

Although I did know that the PCB from the 4TB was bigger than the 1TB and 2TB EVO 860 and EVO 870 SSDs, going back two years ago. As some things change over time as far as computer components are concerned and their physical sizes and construction are concerned. I took the gamble to see if the PCB for the 4TB EVO 870 had gotten smaller, but it hadn't.

Oh well, at least you know not to try the same.

Hi, I have a related question. I have an SSD that I used with Ninja V. I now want to delete those videos and empty the SSD so I can reuse it for another shoot.

However:
1. I can’t delete files from the SSD on my computer
2. Formatting the drive does not work on the computer or on the Ninja V

I am lost on how to empty the SSD so I can reuse it. Appreciate your answer and help!

Thank You ^_^

Can I use the Atomos original docking station with the lunchbox ii?

[TonesAdventuresHD]

I don’t have a ninja but that is interesting. Could you modify that enclosure? You’re pretty good at that stuff when it comes to microphones and headphones! Cheers!

Interesting and a solid investigation.

what is your experience with the evo 870 1to? because my previous drive can't support the prores raw 4k 60fps and i wanted to switch to the samsung but i'm scared its gonna do the same thing.

Will 2TB 870 Evo work? Some people tell, it doesnt work because it was too big. Which year of manufacturing will work?

Great information! I admire the lighting you use on your videos. This one is spectacular. I hope one day you do a video and lighting yourself. I subscribe to this channel. Greetings from Los Angeles, California, USA.

My samsung evo won't even work after it is formatted from the Atomos. It doesn't even recognize the drive anymore. Looking for a new product.

But is it going to work if I just plug it to the atomos ninja v and do you think it can support 4k 60fps ProRes Raw 12 bit, you will help me a lot with an answer. Thank you
