SSD Modules

You can mount the REDMAG 1.8" SSD to the following modules:

  • DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module
  • DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (RED DRAGON®) Carbon Fiber
  • DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (DRAGON)
  • Rear SSD Module

DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Modules

RED offers the following DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Modules:

  • DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module: Mounts to any standard aluminum EPIC/SCARLET.
  • DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (DRAGON): Mounts to an EPIC/SCARLET with a RED DRAGON sensor, and is only available with an EPIC/SCARLET with a RED DRAGON sensor.
  • Carbon Fiber DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (DRAGON): Mounts to a carbon fiber EPIC/SCARLET, and is only available with a carbon fiber EPIC/SCARLET.

Each DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module attaches to the camera system so that you can mount a REDMAG 1.8" SSD to your camera.

Each DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module has the same EVF/LCD connector, user keys, REC button, and LED as the RED MINI-MAG Side SSD Module.

NOTE: The two (2) screws under the SSD slot on the standard aluminum side SSD modules secure an internal bracket that provides structural support. DO NOT loosen these screws. Loosening these screws DOES NOT provide extra clearance for the SSD.

WARNING: The red metal heat sink under the SSD slot on the Carbon Fiber DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (DRAGON) may get hot during long-term operation.

WARNING: Modules, expanders, and lens mounts are NOT HOT SWAPPABLE, meaning you cannot remove or install these items while the camera is turned on. Before installing or removing these items, you MUST turn off the camera. Failure to do so may result in damage to the item or camera that is not covered under warranty.

DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module Connectors

This section describes the connectors for all of the DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Modules.

The DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module mounts to the left side of the EPIC/SCARLET. The rear face of this module features a slot for inserting a REDMAG 1.8" SSD.

WARNING: DO NOT attempt to insert any media type except for the REDMAG 1.8" SSD, or any foreign objects, into the SSD slot, as that may damage the DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module or camera system.

The EVF/LCD connector on the front face of the DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module provides digital video, communications, and power interconnection between the camera system and a RED EVF or RED LCD. Due to the requirement for absolute data integrity, the pinout of the EVF/LCD connector is not published.
