help Glyph Atom Pro FAQ
Is the Glyph Atom Pro a hard drive enclosure or a complete SSD?
The Atom Pro is a complete portable NVMe solid-state drive, not merely an empty enclosure and not a mechanical hard drive. Glyph encloses the drive in an aluminum shell that also acts as a heatsink.
Does the Glyph Atom Pro work through ordinary USB-C?
Its connector has the USB-C shape, but the drive uses Thunderbolt 3 and requires a compatible Thunderbolt port. A basic USB-C port without Thunderbolt support is not sufficient.
How fast is the Glyph Atom Pro?
Glyph rates the current Atom Pro V2 for sustained transfers of up to 3,000 MB/s. Real performance depends on the computer, workload and thermal conditions, but it is far faster than a portable mechanical drive.
Is the Atom Pro limited to Mac computers?
No, it can be used with compatible Windows systems as well as Macs, provided the computer supports Thunderbolt 3 or newer. Reformatting may be necessary when moving between macOS and Windows file systems.
