Glyph Atom EX80 – 8TB – Product Overview
The Glyph Atom EX80 8TB is a high-intensity, portable USB4 SSD engineered for professional creative workflows that require sustained throughput and reliable operation.
It combines USB4 80Gbps connectivity with passive thermal management, integrated tracking, and a magnetic mounting system to support on-set, studio and mobile use.
Next-Gen USB4 Performance
The Atom EX80 uses a USB4 Type-C (80Gbps) interface to deliver real-world transfer speeds up to 7,000 MB/s, enabling direct editing of large RAW video files and rapid backup of high-capacity media.
SteadyIO™ For Sustained Throughput
SteadyIO™ technology keeps read and write speeds consistent over extended transfers so performance does not collapse once caches fill.
Integrated Location Tracking
Built-in mobile device location tracking allows the drive to be located via native Apple and Android tracking software, helping secure hardware and content on the move.
Magnetic Mounting System
The drive is compatible with MagSafe mounting surfaces and will also attach to ferrous metal, offering versatile mounting options for rigs, cases and workstations.
Thermal Design
A solid aluminium core and outer shell provide improved heat dissipation and a higher thermal ceiling for longer sustained performance without active cooling.
Compatibility
Atom EX80 is compatible with Thunderbolt 5/4/3 and USB4 hosts and supports mobile platforms such as iPhone/iPad and Android devices that provide USB-C connectivity.
Rugged Construction
The aluminium exo-skeleton with a soft composite bumper is designed to meet MIL-Standard 810F for shock, vibration and dust resistance to protect data in transit and on location.
Box Contents And Portability
The retail package includes the Glyph Atom EX80 external SSD, a Connect+ USB4 80Gbps Type-C to C 30cm cable, and a rugged removable external cover for transport and protection.
Warranty And Support
Glyph provides a 3-2-1 warranty: three years of full hardware coverage, two years of Level-1 data recovery, and one year of advance replacement to support production continuity.
