DJ Tech Tools Chroma Drive USB (Chrome) 128gb USB A and USB C

Description

Our Chroma USB Drive is a 128GB dual USB-A and USB-C drive designed specifically for DJs.

This drive is has specially-chosen USB 3.2 memory, enabling fast library syncing on Rekordbox and Engine (sync in seconds, not painful hours).

Optimized for pro use, our Chroma Drive went through rigorous testing across Pioneer DJ and Denon DJ gear.

It's incredibly reliable for long gigs and harsh conditions. Sync faster, perform smoother, and never worry about adapters again!

Sync in seconds, not hours
Have you ever waited an hour for just 100 songs to upload to your USB from Rekordbox? It’s not optimized for DJing. Rarely advertised on USB drives are the actual read and write speeds for DJ-style transfers. Most USB drives have memory not designed to update lots of little files quickly (metadata, cues, songs, analysis data, etc), but better at single/big files (ie: a large single video file). DJs libraries aren’t single files - they’re lots of different files that have to be checked, updated, and then added to - all done concurrently.

Tested by DJs for thousands of hours
We've tested these with 350+ hour (two week) marathon DJ sets, using drives on all Pioneer DJ and Denon DJ all-in-ones and media players (CDJs), heavy media recording (DJ sets, 4k ProRes video), Stressdisk testing to ensure the memory has a long use life, high dust / high heat environments in the middle of the Black Rock Desert, heavy repeated plugging/unplugging (500+ times) to simulate long-term wear on the connectors.

Maximum DJ gear compatibility
The drive comes pre-formatted as FAT32. Yes, some newer DJ gear can work with ExFAT and HFS drive formats, but for maximum compatibility with all DJ gear, even just 3-4 year old units, FAT32 makes the most sense. For best results, this means you should leave 10-15% of the drive free to avoid library corruption.

Works with as many pieces of DJ gear as possible out of the box:
The drive comes pre-formatted as FAT32. Yes, some newer DJ gear can work with ExFAT and HFS drive formats, but for maximum compatibility with all DJ gear, even just 3-4 year old units, FAT32 makes the most sense. The only major limitation is that you cannot copy over files larger than 4 GB onto these drives. So if you want to have a very long lossless set stored on your drive, or use it to copy other types of media, you can reformat it easily. We recommend keeping all of your DJ drives FAT32 to make sure that older firmwares and gear all work seamlessly for your future.

Works with:

XDJ-AZ
XDJ-XZ
XDJ-RX, RX2, RX3, RR
Opus QUAD, OMNIS Duo
CDJ-3000, CDJ-2000/NXS/NXS2
XDJ-1000/MK2
Prime GO, Prime 2, Prime 4, plus the plus models
SC5000, SC6000, plus the M models
Honestly, pretty much any DJ device made in the last two decades that uses a USB port on it and can accept FAT32 formatted drives
