SmallRig 5397 Mounting Clamp for External SSD
The SmallRig Mounting Clamp for External SSD (5397) is a compact and versatile mounting solution designed to securely hold portable SSDs on camera rigs and mobile setups. Supporting drives between 40–60 mm wide and 8–17 mm thick (1.6–2.4" x 0.3–0.7"), it provides a reliable way to integrate external storage directly onto camera cages, L-brackets, or MagSafe-compatible iPhones for streamlined workflows.
Unlike traditional spring-loaded clamps, this model features a controlled opening mechanism, allowing for a safer and more precise two-step installation process. This design reduces the risk of accidental release while ensuring a firm grip on your SSD. Dual mounting options further enhance flexibility—users can attach the clamp via two 1/4"-20 screws to camera cages or mount it directly to iPhone 12–16 models using MagSafe, making it ideal for both professional camera rigs and mobile content creation setups.
The clamp is engineered with internal silicone padding, protecting SSDs from scratches while preventing unwanted movement during operation. This ensures stable performance whether you're ???ing handheld, on a rig, or in dynamic environments.
It supports a wide range of popular SSDs, including models from Samsung (T5, T5 EVO, T7, T7 Shield, T9, T9 Shield), SanDisk (E30, E61, E81), Crucial (X9, X9 Pro, X10 Pro), and Western Digital (WD_BLACK P40 and select My Passport models), making it highly adaptable across different workflows.
Installation Options
-
1/4"-20 Screws: Secure the clamp to the side of a cage or mounting plate using two standard screws
-
MagSafe Mounting: Attach directly to the back of MagSafe-compatible iPhones (iPhone 12–16 series)
Notes
-
When using a phone case, ensure proper magnetic alignment and secure attachment
