EXT Disk
All HyperDeck models can record directly to USB-C flash disks. These fast, high capacity
drives allow you to record video for long periods. You can then connect the flash disk to your
computer and edit directly from them!
For even higher storage capacities, you can connect a USB-C dock or external hard drive. To
connect your Blackmagic MultiDock 10G or USB-C flash disk, connect a cable from your USB-C
connected device to the ‘ext disk’ port on the rear panel of your HyperDeck.

Formatting Media on a Mac Computer
The Disk Utility application included with Mac can format a drive in the HFS+ or exFAT formats.
Make sure you back up anything important from your disk as you will lose everything on it when
it is formatted.
1 Connect a USB flash disk to your computer with an external dock or cable adapter and
dismiss any message offering to use your SSD for Time Machine backups. For SD cards,
connect it to your computer via an external card reader.
2 Go to applications/utilities and launch Disk Utility.
3 Click on the disk icon of your SD card or USB flash disk and then click the erase tab.
4 Set the format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or exFAT.
5 Type a name for the new volume and then click erase. Your media will quickly be formatted
and made ready for use with HyperDeck.
