Hello.

Exist a SATA to SD-Slot Adapter?
If not, this is "your" chance for a Crowdfunding project...

Using a big cheap HDD at a camcorder etc..
For example, with case, battery and 1/4" thread (for mounting on or under the camcorder/camera).

That would be a big advantage.
12.5MB/s, ~750MB/min, ~45GB per hour. 81min with 64GB.
For example, 5TB are ~ 105h, or 4.4d. Or 2TB, 42h, 1.75d.
OK, that seems like a lot, but 128GB or 256GB is small.
Expensive 512GB are only ~ 10h. Anbd yes, th

The first professional 4K recordings were made live on hard drives on the camera.
 
Solution
1. "big cheap HDD" = 3.5" drive = needs external power.

2. You're not going to be doing that long all in a single shot. Swap 128/256GB SD cards as needed.
