PortaGig 62 is modeled after it's powerful big brother the Glyph GT062E,
and offers 1TB in a tiny footprint. With an internal SATA drive, 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.
If you're as serious about the safety of the work you do on the go as
you are about recording it in the first place, then you need a dual-disc
Glyph PortaGig 62 hard drive. It may look small, but the PortaGig 62 is
a serious, high-capacity hard drive. In fact, the PortaGig 62 isn't
just a hard drive, it's a pair of hard drives that work together to give
you the speed and security you need. That means you can setup your
PortaGig 62 to give you the blazing fast read/write speed of a RAID 0
configuration, the peace of mind of a mirrored RAID 1 configuration, or
the full capacity of a spanning configuration. FireWire 800, USB 2.0,
and eSATA interfaces give the PortaGig 62 the wide variety of
connections you need to work from any modern computer.
