Built For Reliable Speed

Whether you’re editing large format video in the field on an ultra-thin notebook or batch editing images on an all-in-one machine, the Aura Pro IV is built to ensure your confidence. Advanced flash management technology along with synchronous caching enable you to enjoy super-fast transfer speeds with the highest attainable reliability of the drive and your data.

Starts Fast. Stays Fast.

Fast speed out of the box is a given with SSDs. What matters though is when you are doing a high volume of data work over the long haul, you need your SSD to keep up with you. The Aura Pro IV utilizes 7% of its capacity for over-provisioning to ensure consistently high sustained write speeds over the drive’s entire capacity. While other drives will slow you down to a crawl, you’ll start fast and stay fast over the long haul with Aura Pro IV.

DIY Perfection

The Aura Pro IV is the perfect way to give yourself a reliable high-performance boost that will completely transform your existing machine or enclosure. You can also DIY build from new and handle demanding needs on the road with an OWC Express 1M2.
  1. Up to 5209MB/s max sequential read and 1200MB/s max sustained performance based on testing a 1TB OWC Aura Pro IV 2242 SSD in an Accelsior 1M2 with a Gigabyte X570 AORUS MASTER with AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 32GB memory and Windows 11 Pro running CrystalDiskMark (1GB, default settings).
