Glyph PortaGig

We started with our hugely popular FireWire 400 PortaGig and upgraded it with

two FireWire 800 ports, a fast internal SATA II drive, Oxford 934 chip, and a rear power switch.

We've also upgraded the warranty to three years.

This tiny bus-powered hard drive weighs less than 10 ounces, but is powerful enough to support

high track-count audio sessions, and has been tested and approved with Digidesign Pro Tools.

Designed with a fanless, light aluminum enclosure, it allows you to work on the road easily and reliably.

If bus power is not available or is insufficient, you can use the included power supply.

PortaGig 800 drives are available in 7,200 and 5,400 RPM models. The 5,400 RPM drives are available in higher capacities, while the 7,200 RPM drives have slightly higher performance. All models of the PortaGig perform well in an audio environment, however the 7,200 RPM models have slightly higher track count compared to the 5,400 RPM models due to their higher transfer rates.

PortaGig 800 can be run successfully using FireWire and/or USB bus power supplied by many notebook computers, however Glyph can't guarantee compatibility with all notebooks due to differing bus power specs. If you want to guarantee PortaGig 800 will work with your laptop, use the included DC supply.
