SD Association announces UHS-III allowing for 624 MB/s speeds

The need for speed no longer just applies to cars. Or games related to cars. In an age where digital photography is prevalent, from phones, to cameras, to drones, being able to record and transfer image data at high speeds has become just as important as the camera sensors themselves. That is why the SD Association, the industry group tasked with standardizing SD technology, has announced the latest specification for the tiny data storage. Called, what else, UHS-III, this spec for the SD bus interface doubles the data transfer rates of the previous UHS-II, from 312 MB/s to a whopping 624 MB/s.
