I wonder if there is any hardware update to come fixing the datarate issue with the PHU-60K.
I'm very happy about recording to a 60GB harddisk insted of the expensive SxS cards, but it doesn't make sense to connect the 800 MBit/s adapter to the harddisk by a 400 MBit/s USB - resulting in impossibility to record in Q&S-Mode on the disk.

I have KXS going strong with 4 16 gigger cards and the original 8 SXS card to give me about 4 hrs plus at 1080 30P. It all costs about $300 or so. You can't beat this price point ~ the transcend 16G cards are about $25. That's the ticket !!!
 
Thanks for the quick reply.
My problem is that I need to film a lot of overcranked material. As far as i know the adaptersystems with SD cards can't manage f.e. 60fps overcranking at 25p
 
You are correct, the only media that can sustain 25p @ 60FPS is genuine SxS. Even if such an update came (which I doubt as it is likely a physical limitation, not just firmware) it would also allow KxS to do full overcranking as well, the good SD media has the write data rate to support it.
