The cornerstones of the world’s only From Capture to Completion ecosystem for creators
From day one over three decades ago, our mission was to create professional grade quality solutions that offered the highest performance and reliability to maximize your technology investment. We’ve learned a lot over the years working directly with creative pros at all levels. From the first click, frame, or note to the final edit, we’ve listened to your valuable insights and experiences to purposefully designed a complete content workflow solution that delivers:
- Incomparable reliability to ensure your complete confidence.
- Highest performance to save you time and money.
- Professional grade quality to maximize the longevity of your investment.
Why OWC
We know how important data integrity and reliability is because our team is filled with filmmakers, photographers, musicians, designers, influencers, and parents just like you wanting to capture, present, and preserve that irreplaceable moment. We also understand your need for more speed and capacity when it comes to making everything more efficient in the content creation process.
So, we sweat the details so you can work with 100% confidence. Our Atlas memory cards are pushed to their limit in the highest settings of high-end cameras under challenging environmental conditions to ensure they will flawlessly deliver the speed and data integrity you need when you only have one chance to capture the moment. Our Envoy, ThunderBlade, and ThunderBay storage solutions go through countless hours of ongoing development testing and certification processes and then are subjected to extreme real-world abuses. We do all this because your craft, reputation, and faith in us are too important to treat casually.
A professional shoot can be costly and time consuming between planning and execution, so the worst nightmare of dropped frames, jittery playback, or corrupt files are simply not an option. OWC products are passionately made by content creators for content creators because we want to create solutions we ourselves would use and that’s why workflows and hardware ecosystems are so important to us.
The bottom line to all this is we’re the only manufacturer that has thought out and addressed every aspect of a workflow ecosystem that you can depend on every single time you are on set, in the field, or at the studio.
Capture and Ingest
There’s no guesswork when you use an Atlas memory card. Our dedicated in-house testing lab features a huge assortment of past and present DSLR and mirrorless cameras to ensure maximum compatibility. We also test verify backwards compatibility with previous generations of devices and readers. When you capture with OWC, you know It Just Works™.
You can shrug off the toughest environmental challenges like x-rays, shocks, and bends when you’re capturing in the field with Atlas memory cards. Our cards are even tough enough to be IP67 dustproof and waterproof rated. Now you can shoot, store, and swap with total peace of mind because Atlas cards have your work — and your back — well protected.

Award-winning photojournalist, director, author, and advertising photographer that has shot five National Geographic cover stories, seven LIFE Magazine covers, and covered four Olympic Games for diverse clients like ABC television, Sports Illustrated, and TIME magazine.
“This Business Is All About Confidence.”
A Completely Dependable Ecosystem
To move fast and stay with the action in the field, Joe shoots straight to 1.0 terabyte Atlas Ultra CFexpress 4.0 cards. At the end of the day, he uses the Atlas CFexpress 4.0 card reader to compliment the Atlas card speed so he can immediately download to his desktop. After doing a quick review, he transfers to three Envoy SSDs to ensure the take is safe. Back in the studio, he utilizes ThunderBay Flex 8 as his main drive to provides an additional layer of backup.
“The benefit of working with OWC is that I feel very very secure with my data. This business is all about confidence. OWC cards, readers, and drives is an ecosystem you can plug into that is completely up to the task and very dependable.”

“Out on the road, there’s no time for any errors.”
The Contributions to a Very Fast and Stable Workflow
Dependability is a must for René when he’s under extreme pressure to capture events like Phish’s annual New Year’s Eve tour at Madison Square Garden. Think Broadway show with many different elements that each only appear for a few seconds. He also likes to create stunning visuals using in-camera multiple exposures which require fast write speeds.

Renan Ozturk
Commercial and documentary filmmaker, expedition climber for The North Face, and photojournalist for National Geographic.
“20 years and I’ve never had a failure.”
The Unsung Hero No One Ever Talks About
Shooting stills, time-lapses, and video with multiple cameras simultaneously in remote locations in extreme conditions is just another day at the office for Renan. He uses gear harder than most people and does things with them he knows he shouldn’t. He also knows being prepared with the right gear helps him come back with what he needs for a story. That’s why he feels having products like the 32TB ThunderBlade, 2.0TB Atlas Ultra CFexpress 4.0 cards, and the Atlas CFexpress Card Reader is the difference between doing your job really well or barely doing your job.
“While camera technology continues to progress, really it’s the drives and cards that’s helping us save sleep and really accomplish more in these really remote locations. It’s the unsung hero that no one ever talks about. We’ve been using OWC products and drives for almost 20 years and I’ve never had a failure.”

Adrian “AP” Porter
Producer, engineer, programmer, and sound designer for VMA winner Lil Wayne, AMA winner Toni Braxton, and Usher’s SuperBowl halftime show.
“If this doesn’t work, nothing else matters.”
The Most Vital Piece to Million Dollar Productions
For his portable rig, Adrian relies on Envoy SSDs for storage and the Thunderbolt Go Dock which allows him to connect one cable to his computer, turn on the power, and have everything ready to go, including IOs, converters, drives, and controllers.
In his studio and live setup, Adrian’s session work is all on the Flex 1U4. Multiple SSDs are configured in a RAID, additional hard drive storage provides redundancy, and the Flex 1U4 also connects external displays. All peripherals are interfaced via the 14-Port Thunderbolt Dock to ensure stable throughput without losing information.
“If this session goes down, that’s millions of dollars and the artist’s show potentially being cancelled. So it has to be flawless. That’s why I use these OWC products because of the stability they provide me. It’s probably the most vital piece of the show because if this doesn’t work, nothing else matters.”
