About Panasonic AG-MSU10
The Panasonic AG-MSU10 P2 Media Storage Unit is a mobile storage device designed for backing up and transferring video footage from P2 memory cards to an internal solid state drive, external hard drive, or to a Mac or PC. With its rugged design, built-in P2 card slot, AC/DC operation and USB 2.0 and eSATA interfaces, the AG-MSU10 offers a range of options to insure your P2 video remains safe while in the field. The included removable interface tray is designed to hold a 2.5" solid state drive (purchased separately), which can be used internally or, with its own eSATA and USB connectors, as removable media hooked directly to a PC or Mac editing system.
