Glyph Atom EX40 High-Intensity USB4 NVMe SSD, 2TB
The Glyph Atom EX40 High-Intensity USB4 NVMe SSD is a rugged, professional-grade portable SSD built for demanding creative workflows that require high sustained performance, fast transfer speeds, and dependable reliability. Designed for filmmakers, photographers, editors, music producers, content creators, and production professionals, the Atom EX40 delivers USB4 performance with transfer speeds up to 4,000 MB/s, making it an excellent solution for 8K and 12K workflows, RAW photo and video editing, VR production, multicam projects, and fast media backups.
Built for real production environments, the Glyph Atom EX40 is engineered to handle long takes, large files, continuous writes, and deadline-driven work without depending only on short peak-speed bursts. Its solid aluminum core and outer shell increase thermal capacity by helping remove heat from internal components, allowing for higher sustained speeds and improved reliability during intense workloads. Whether you are dumping camera cards on set, backing up a full day of footage, or editing directly from an external drive, the Atom EX40 is designed to keep pace with professional production demands.
The Atom EX40 features the latest 40Gb USB4 Type-C connectivity and is backward compatible with USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and Thunderbolt 5 systems. It is formatted for macOS out of the box and can be used with Windows after reformatting, giving creative professionals flexible compatibility across modern editing, production, and storage setups. The bus-powered design keeps the workflow simple by eliminating the need for an external power supply.
For mobile production and travel, the Glyph Atom EX40 is built with a rugged design that helps protect your files in the field. It features MIL-Standard 810F-rated protection for shock, vibration, and dust resistance, along with an aluminum exo-skeleton and soft composite bumper to help keep both the drive and surrounding gear safe. The fan-less heat dissipation design allows quiet operation, while real-time integrated health monitoring supports confidence during professional use.
Every Glyph Atom EX40 includes Glyph’s 3-2-1 warranty coverage, providing three years of full hardware coverage, two years of Level-1 data recovery, and one year of advance replacement. With high-speed USB4 performance, rugged construction, broad device compatibility, and production-focused reliability, the Glyph Atom EX40 is a powerful portable SSD for serious creative professionals.
