Glyph Technologies Atom Reviews

Glyph Is The BEST!!!

By Shavonn
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2019-06-27

I've had multiple Glyph products, but this by far is the best. I've owned the first generation Atom at approx. 500GB, a 4GB Atom RAID and 2 Glyph Blackboxes. I definitely enjoy this product the best. The capacity at 2TB is great and I like its size and weight compared to the Atom RAID even though the Atom RAID does have some great backup advantages.

Does it have password protection to access data ...

Does it have password protection to access data on the drive?
Asked by: Phillip
The manufacture doesn't state this drive supports encryption to add a password protection. If you would like an alternative option, I can recommend you, BH #SAMUPA2T0BAM. This model offers password protection.
