Glyph Technology GT 062E 500GB Hard Drive

The original GT 062 became a standard in both the Audio and Video production worlds. The new GT 062E improves on a good thing by adding an eSATA port, which enables over 200MB/s sustained transfer rate in RAID 0 mode. Using Oxford's new 936DSE chip, the GT 062E supports higher capacity drives, allowing RAID 0. Connected by FireWire 800, USB 2.0, or eSATA (with Glyph's Highpoint card), the GT 062E reports the health of the two internal drives using Glyph Manager software. With dual Seagate SATA drives under the hood, there's plenty of speed for applications like Final Cut Pro, Avid Xpress, and Adobe Premiere. With tons of speed and reliability, the GT 062E is ideal for audio and video editing, content creation, and huge Sound libraries.

RAID 1 offers Data redundancy and Real-time backup by writing the same data to the two hard drives at the same time

RAID 0 (striping) increases the performance of the drive system by spreading the data across two drives

Spanning mode simply shows the two internal drives as one large volume
