Glyph Blackbox Plus 8TB 560 MB/s USB-C Portable NVMe SSD

Very durable, USB C, External hard drive. We are using it for additional storage for a small small camera system DVR. Works flawlessly

Glyph is it. Fast, tough, but be careful, power surges can kill it.

Updated: The enclosure has big flaw, it doesn't power down properly after safely removing USB. After unplug USB cable, for SSD, SMART records unexpected power shutdown; for HDD, a mechanical squeaking noise can be heard. No other enclosure i have has this problem. Stay away from this product. * The case is metal except the cover side with USB-C connector and light which is a plastic piece. * Rubber sleeve is thick and appears good quality. Rubber sleeve has two footing that are stackable. * The drive inside is WD blue SSD WDS200T2B0A * The frame holding the SSD with 4 screws is plastic, it is one piece to the cover side. * Control chip of USB-C is ASM235CM. * two cables included are one foot long.

I got this Glyph external hard drive after I lost all of my files and photos on two Western Digital external hard drives. I was hesitant about the getting it because of the cost, but seeing that it had an SSD in it, was fast, rugged and made in the USA, I went for it. I have a laptop with Windows, so I had to to call them to figure out to format it, since it comes formatted for Macs. They answered the call quickly, spoke English, since they’re headquartered in NY, and stayed with me until I was sure I got it formatted correctly. I copied over thousands of pictures in very few minutes, which I liked, and was super quiet. So far it’s working great! I think with the SSD in it, I won’t have the issue of losing pictures, but time will tell.

You know what's annoying? Having a little message pop up in the upper right hand corner of your computer every 5 minutes saying "Glyph was not ejected properly". The cable connecting the disks is faulty, and any time I even breath on it my computer thinks it's been improperly ejected even though it's still very much plugged into my mac. I bought this product because it had an overwhelming amount of positive reviews I can't imagine I just happened to have got the only faulty cable...makes me wonder if there's something shady going on with this company and their reviews...

Good storage product, I recommend it

Love it. I run Pro-Tools sessions out of this drive and it’s lighting fast! I have the 1TB and it does very well.

this drive arrived defective. I spent time with on the phone with glyph tech support and they eventually told me to get a refund from the Amazon seller.

Le produit est de bonne facture, même si la coque de protection externe manque un peu de rigidité et a une tendance a bouger sur le boitier. Ce dernier est massif mais difficile d'avoir 5to dans plus petit sans passer au SSD. Par contre pour le prix, on s'attend au moins a voir un câble Thunderbolt, mais rien, juste un câble usb classique donc il faut rajouter 20/30€ a une facture déjà salée Pour le moment les performances sont correctes, même si le disque a une tendance a gratter. Pour le moment il est monté en Raid 1 avec un autre disque de 3,5" et je l'embarque lors de mes déplacements.

Adquirimos este disco para un trabajo el trabajo de postproducción de una miniserie y funciona bien. Lo único complejo fue formatearlo en ExFat desde un windows.

Fait trop de bruit ! Obligé de le débrancher la nuit pour pouvoir dormir...
