Overview

Designed for high-speed access to audio and video content, while at the same time offering flexible connectivity options, the Glyph GT 050Q hard drive is the highest performing Quad interface drive on the market today. The external hard drive is constructed with durable stainless steel and uses tri-laminate sound-damping metal, which absorbs drive vibration before it can get to the chassis.
