Glyph Technologies Blackbox PRO External HDD Overview

Connect to a monitor via a DisplayPort interface and use the integrated hub to connect to wired peripherals via a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port. Additionally, the hub sports a CF 2.0 and SD card reader slot for easy access of compatible memory cards. A quiet cooling fan helps keep temperatures low, along with an aluminum construction that encourages passive cooling. Compatible with macOS and Time Machine ready right out of the box, this RAID array is also compatible with Windows after a reformat.

Please note that storage capacity depends on the RAID mode used.

Connect More with Thunderbolt 3

Dual Thunderbolt 3 ports allow you to daisy-chain up to five additional devices through a single cable to your computer.

Enterprise-Grade Hard Drives

This array comes preinstalled with two 8TB 7200 rpm Enterprise-class hard drives for a total storage capacity of 16TB. Supporting speeds up to 550 MB/s, the Blackbox PRO RAID is built for demanding workflows and mission-critical projects.

Hardware RAID

Blackbox PRO RAID supports hardware RAID 0, 1, JBOD, and SPAN, giving you the flexibility to choose RAID 0 for speed or RAID 1 for redundancy. Set it and forget it without needing to deal with finicky and slow software-based RAID.

Hub with Card Readers

Streamline your workflow with onboard CFast 2.0 and SD UHS-II card readers. Use the USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port to connect fast SSD storage or charge peripherals.

Built-In DisplayPort

Connect a 4K monitor directly to your Blackbox PRO RAID Thunderbolt 3 and streamline your desk setup.

Formatted for macOS and Time Machine Ready

Blackbox PRO RAID is formatted for macOS computers and is Time Machine compatible right out of the box. Plus, it can be easily reformatted for use with Windows.

Stay Cool Under Pressure

Don't be afraid to put the Blackbox PRO RAID to work. The rugged aluminum shell acts as a heatsink keeping the internal hard drive at its optimal temperature to deliver higher sustained speeds.

Comprehensive Warranty

Get peace of mind with a 3-year limited warranty with full hardware coverage, including the cables, as well as 2-year level 1 data recovery and one year of advanced replacement.
