About Glyph Technologies 1TB Portable RAID Hard Drive

PortaGig 62 is modeled after it's powerful big brother the GT 062E and offers 1TB in a tiny footprint. With the internal SATA drives available in 7,200 RPM, the PortaGig 62 supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and Spanning modes. A built-in fan keeps the drives cool while Glyph Manager software constantly monitors the drive and enclosure health, notifying you if there is a problem.

Bus-powered with FireWire 800, the PortaGig 62 also includes USB and eSATA ports for optimum compatibility, allowing you to easily work on the road with a reliable RAID. Although eSATA is not a bus-powered interface, you can use the eSATA connection for fast data transfer (up to 177MB/s) while simultaneously using the FireWire 800 connection to power the drive. An external power supply is included with the PortaGig 62 if bus power is not available or is insufficient.

Glyph Technologies 1TB Portable RAID Hard Drive Features

  • A cool drive is a healthy drive: The PortaGig 62 uses a quiet internal fan for maximum airflow and proper cooling. The case is designed with front-panel ventilation holes to draw cool air in, while exhausting warm air out the back - critical to the performance and reliability of the components
  • Health Monitoring built in: If a drive in your PortaGig 62 experiences an issue, Glyph Manager software will warn you before it becomes a real problem
