With Paragon’s UFSD support for popular file systems built into modern digital devices, consumers can enjoy issue-free compatibility between their media centers, digital televisions, set-top boxes, or any digital device with USB, SD, or Micro SD sockets and those used to format storage media, such as portable HDDs, in order to freely playback recorded video and audio regardless of file system type.
