ProGrade Digital™, founded with a mission to provide the highest quality professional grade digital memory cards and workflow solutions, announces improvements to its microSD line of memory cards with a step-up in read performance to 250MB/second as well as support for ProGrade Digital’s Refresh Pro Software.
