Bus-Powered 7,200 RPM Mini-Drive.
The PortaGig hard drive makes portable recording and editing easy. With
its tiny bus-powered enclosure, it’s small enough to fit into a pocket, and
powerful enough to support high track-count audio sessions. With FireWire
400 and USB 2.0 interfaces, PortaGig is compatible with Mac, Windows and
Linux systems supporting FireWire or USB. Designed with a fanless, light
aluminum enclosure, it allows you to work on the road easily and reliably. If
bus power is not available or is insufficient, you can use the optional power
supply.

guarantee compatibility with all notebooks
due to differing bus power specs. If you want

optional DC supply from your Glyph dealer.
