Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?TIF H : This is my go-to hard drive for image backup after years of buying cheap WD hard drives that stopped spinning after a few years. I've been using Glyph SSDs for a few years now and they are solid. You get what you pay for.DANIEL S : I've been using the 2TB size for over a year and need a larger size for TimeMachine. It is whisper quiet and has a really slick look to it.

Good but there are better ones out there

Good cheap portable hard drive. Works fine on my 2018 Mac book pro 13 laptop. Clearly not as fast as my other hard drive from OWC. I wish I had waited a few weeks for the price drop at OWC on the 1tb drives though. Very good but not the best in my view.

Great Storage Device - Attractive and Quick

A great storage device that is ultra quick. Svelt sleeve protects the actual hard drive component and features an overall attractive design. It's configured for a MAC and reformatting the drive to work on a Windows computer is a pretty cumbersome process. However, I called Glyph customer service and they were great in walking me through the process. It took a matter of minutes and the drive was initialized and ready for use.

Blazing

What else can I say, it mounts quick and works fast. The USB-C is a smooth connection and the drive is smaller than my iPhone. I love it.

What I wanted

This SSD is exactly what I wanted. The price was right and the quality is exceptional. For backing up most Mac Book Pro's this is an ideal solution.
