I'm so sorry you feel offended by my previous post.😘
As you admit yourself not having any geek knowledge to determine the exact usage a NVMe drive; I was just trying to clarify the post you where sharing. It was, in no way, an attack to the filmmakers community that knows shit about technical stuff but still keep re-posting absurdities.

My only goal is to make this great forum a better place with my real life experience (and love.🥰)

I always had a commitment to support the filmmaker community. I can only bow to your message and ask you for ultimate forgiveness.🙏 please, please.

I hope my personal hack last Sunday, on this forum, with an easy way to reset the Canon R5 timer is enough to be absolved.

Please accept my full apologies if you felt I was having condescending tone or look like I was some kind of geek. Even if my degree was related to computer science, believe me; I have tried to stay away from techies and other complicated process my entire life. A quick fact check on my previous post and personal blog should reassure you. 
The truce is far less interesting. It's almost sad, even. 
I'm a very simple camera guy. I have been shooting only few days so far;
 made a count last year and it was just about 1,000 shooting for the past 15 years. I have put this in my humble website if you like to give a look by following my profile name. I know it's a low and this is obliviously due to my lack of skills as a cameraman too. I really sucks at everything I commit.
My client are obscure companies like Disney, IBM, Apple... as you may check. My eyes start to be full of water when writing this down. 

The "Filmmaker" title's is way beyond my reaches as my old age is now a translation of back pain and loss of eyesight.
I might be retiring without even getting the glorious title of "DoP". Ok, you are making me cry now. It was not a good idea to write about this.😢

And you know the worst of all; I don't even own a Canon R5. I had to ask for help here from a fellow member to test and validate my findings. Only this way it have been proven to work.
The saddest thing of all;I have invested on two Sony FS7's few years back and may never be able to shoot with a DSLR. I',m stuck using cine lens and other heavy gear forever.
That mean that I will not use my hack for myself and will donate the entire result to the the community I was hoping to join once. 

Thank you for listening. Here is love again ❤️💖❤️for you and the beautiful movies you have been making all over the world that I can see nowhere.
 

970 Evo Plus is clearly the way to go, price-wise included:

BTW seems plain obvious to me, you have zero clue about to whom you addressed those words as well the intention of my post up there... I stand my prior notes to express my thanks to you, because I actually succeeded to see you adding a new post to comment it ;- )

You are taking sentence out of the context.
Yes, a drive is not removable easily from the enclosure and, no you may not swap drive on the fly. It's like saying SSD are not removable media. Still, they are used everyday as removable media cause the interface is something else that what is inside the enclosure.

But this system is an enclosure for NVMe drive that will put the heat away from the card reader , allowing cheaper and very large drive capacity.
The heat generated by the card can be way easier dissipated than a CFExpress card. I actually have such enclosure for another project, it's all aluminium with a thermal pad around

And, by the way, you should talk to DJI; this is what they use on their Inspire 2 as drive.... But they change the connector type to be more sturdy.

If you look at ZITAY product, they already successfully implement such solution for black-magic camera, without a need for extra external power. (CFFast to SSD)
The product needs to be tested, but it specifically states R5 and Z6 / Z7 (and other C300 camera)
It have a screw thread to secure it to a cage. This will help dissipate heat.
And if you go for large version, it's a great option to reduce overall cost.

CFExpress card are kinda 512 GB max, with nvme you can go to 4TB for similar price. You unscrew the drive when you have 4TB of data, so, maybe one a day.

This product come with a cover to push the door switch and so let the cable going out. So the door will be open during shooting.

I have 0 test so far, but it's look great to me on the paper. I let you do some research on their website, and not just pick up sentences from a different discussion in a blog.

Great finding, I was looking for such without success few weeks back. I guess t's about market demand versus offer!

I did similar test on my DJI Inspire 2 and I did not lost any data writing raw 5K.
I'ts also a money saver as you only buying the drive and not the card.

This is one way to solve 2 issues at once.

USD 150 if you found them online in China. https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.28.29076df3HVdowO&id=626009844453

The price will be falling down as soon as competition kicks in.
 

Any chance this cfexpress to nvme ssd could work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/184438464836

can confirm 1.1.1 works with date change and battery pull method to reset timer. 

I am doing some stress tests.
No issues so far and haven't had any 'low temperature burns'...
This is the method in action during a field test...
This is a comment on Roger's heat emissions tests, my own findings, and the Canon PR remarks to Johnnie:
https://www.eoshd.com/news/canon-eos-r5-8k-stress-test-1-no-problem-with-timer-reset-so-far/

Thanks for the comfirmation!

Just confirmed that the Date change "hack" is still live with New firmware on R5. 

Has anyone updated to 1.1.1 on and tested the reset?

UPDATE:
I have tried the date/time trick without defeating the battery door sensor. Just pull the battery as normal and it works.
https://www.eoshd.com/news/magic-lantern-users-create-practical-canon-eos-r5-overheating-timer-workaround/

Works too. I didn't do 100 clips, just 12.

Heat dissipation. Heat-sinked sensor probably. Same as all other cinema cameras that won't overheat.

Why no ibis?

Why no ibis?

It's worth another look.
Quite a few variables and ways to do it.
I haven't had the time try everything to be honest.
The guy on YouTube has tried pulling the battery during a recording, and got 5 mins remaining.
I also got 5 minutes remaining, but stopped the recording first.
I thought at this point, if the timer is in RAM then it should go up to 20 mins in 8K not 5.
Then I went out and had an ice cream with the girlfriend.
So tomorrow maybe I should put more effort in!?

Another way possibly to trick the R5 would be to install a dummy battery and power-cycle the camera using the dummy battery. Might this possibly reset the camera losing it's settings/memory? Something to try.

This is a Tsunami for Canon, but the outcomes may be quite interesting.

Think about the overall design? It was actually not too bad as they need to implement a timer to shut it down.
I can't imagine their meeting between the guy in charge of the R5 project when he learn that Canon will put a timer to shut it down, even if he did a great job preventing overheating.

Sony should start worried a bit too as the R5 camera is a real hybrid without this tiny battery cell. Not so much overheating, high resolution sensor, great AF and dynamic range.
The advantage of A7R3 will be reduced quite drastically. 

Can Canon goes with a firmware to remove this timer? Sure (And I don't think there is a need for a recall, it's purely software related)
Can magic lantern just create a smart app that change the value of the timer? That's seems quite simple if you know where this flag is located in memory.

Think of all these fake youtuber and website who have been reported about their camera not overheating, or even presented the Tilta solution as viable. What a joke.
All these blogs and comments explaining that the sensor have to overheat; that tests was badly done; bla bla bla.
How ridiculous they are now? How will they come clean on this one?
I can tell you that it put them on a weird position with the brand they supported if they keep this silence.

Canon have to answer this one.
Either by dropping the "overheat" flag by software, or at least explain what they did and call it with real word : "Recording Timer"

Knowing that it's a complete fabricated issue is actually a relief and I may consider one again. It just have to be fixed.

 

No way they offer a recall. They knew exactly how this would all play out. They test these cameras for a long time with professionals and they even get feedback. This isn't an oversight. They are just making a super conservative camera that records for a certain amount of time not considering the exterior temperature. Please Canon just let the camera run as long as it can!

I refuse to believe Connot would be THIS underhanded. I'm sure it really IS a true heat problem and NOT a software programmed timer. What programmer would do this in the office, go home at the end of the day and still be able to sleep at night? 
I think the problem is probably with your fridge. There is prolly something wrong with it. Can you test with a freezer instead?

I'd like to hear from Tilta as well as Canon.
If my fridge doesn't cool the camera externally what does their fan do differently?
Canon said officially: "Use an external fan to dissipate heat"
Well I used an external fridge to dissipate heat and it made no fucking difference.

I think the best we can hope for is. "We were finally able to solve the overheating problem in the R5 and R6." And that would be enough.  

I think Canon is just playing it safe so it records consistently in all types of exterior temperatures. I wish they would just let it run as much as it can, but then people would complain that it can only record 20 minutes in 100 F + weather. Haha. I would much rather it run for 40 minutes in sub 100 F weather, but I think this is the only way they can give consistent runtimes which I guess they think matters the most. Just let it do what it run as long as it can given the temperatures, Canon, please! 
 
I spoke with Canon CPS guy today and he said he gets at least one call a day about this issue and he said that canon wants them to log anything we tell them especially regarding the R5. They are listening!
