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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16TB total storage capacity for professional media, backup, and production workflows\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes 2 x 8TB 3.5\" 7200 rpm enterprise-class SATA III hard drives\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo 40 Gb\/s Thunderbolt 3 ports for fast data transfer and daisy-chaining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports daisy-chaining up to five additional devices through a single cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTransfer speeds up to 550 MB\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in DisplayPort for connecting a 4K monitor directly to the RAID array\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port for connecting fast SSD storage or charging peripherals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in CFast 2.0 and UHS-II SD card reader slots for media ingest\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardware RAID support for RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and SPAN workflows\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePreconfigured in RAID 0 for high-speed performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFormatted for macOS and Time Machine ready out of the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Windows after reformatting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum shell acts as a heatsink for improved sustained performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuiet cooling fan helps keep temperatures low\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKensington security slot and lockable bay door for added security\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes Thunderbolt 3 cable, rugged removable cover, and external power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16TB\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Drives\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 x 8TB SATA III 3.5\" HDD, 7200 rpm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRAID Support\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes;
