Glyph Blackbox PRO RAID 2-Bay Thunderbolt 3 Array Hub, 16TB
The Glyph Technologies Blackbox PRO RAID 16TB 2-Bay Thunderbolt 3 RAID Array with Hub is a professional desktop storage solution built for creators, editors, photographers, videographers, audio engineers, production teams, and business users who need high-capacity storage with fast connectivity and integrated workflow tools. Equipped with two 8TB 7200 rpm enterprise-class hard drives, this 2-bay RAID array provides 16TB of total storage capacity for large media libraries, project backups, video editing files, photo archives, audio sessions, and mission-critical production assets.
Designed to streamline professional storage and media workflows, the Blackbox PRO RAID with Hub combines high-capacity RAID storage with built-in connectivity for everyday production needs. Dual 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 ports support fast transfer speeds up to 550 MB/s and allow daisy-chaining up to five additional devices through a single cable connected to your computer. The integrated DisplayPort makes it easy to connect a 4K monitor directly to the RAID array, helping reduce cable clutter and simplify desktop setups.
This hub version expands the workflow even further with onboard CFast 2.0 and UHS-II SD card reader slots for downloading content from compatible memory cards, plus a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port for connecting fast external storage or charging peripherals. For video editors, photographers, and digital imaging technicians, the integrated card readers help create a cleaner, faster workstation by combining storage, media ingest, and device connectivity in one rugged desktop unit.
The Blackbox PRO RAID supports hardware RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and SPAN configurations, giving users the flexibility to choose speed, redundancy, or independent drive access depending on the project. It comes preconfigured in RAID 0 for maximum performance and is formatted for macOS with Time Machine compatibility right out of the box. It can also be reformatted for use with Windows, making it a practical solution for mixed-platform creative and production environments.
Built for demanding workflows and long production days, the rugged aluminum shell acts as a heatsink to help keep the internal hard drives at optimal operating temperatures for higher sustained speeds. A quiet cooling fan helps maintain low temperatures, while the lockable bay door and Kensington security slot provide additional physical security. With Glyph’s comprehensive warranty coverage, including full hardware coverage, Level 1 data recovery, and advance replacement, the Blackbox PRO RAID with Hub is designed for professionals who need dependable, high-capacity desktop RAID storage.
