Product Description
The Glyph Blackbox PRO is a rugged, reliable, high-capacity storage solution built for demanding workflows and mission-critical projects. Featuring a 7,200 RPM Enterprise Class internal hard drive, coupled with a versatile and fast USB Type-C port, and enclosed in a tough aluminium and silicone enclosure, it is ideal for backup or quickly accessing photos, videos, and music.
Available with up to 30TB of fast 7,200 RPM Enterprise Class storage with speeds up to 280 MB/s, the Blackbox PRO is formatted for macOS and is Time Machine compatible right out of the box, with easy reformatting for Windows. The rugged aluminium shell acts as a heatsink, keeping the internal hard drive at its optimal temperature to deliver higher sustained speeds with fan-less heat dissipation. Backed by Glyph's industry-leading 3-2-1 warranty: three years of full hardware coverage (including cables), two years of Level-1 data recovery, and one year of advanced replacement.
