Glyph uses efficient, high-quality power supplies, selected specifically for the demands of production environments. Our power supplies have a large amount of headroom, so your Glyph system will function, for brief periods of time, with AC lines significantly below specified limits. - Page 10 ATA-to-FireWire products. This offers true hard drive hot-swap technology, ensuring data integrity and consistency: removing a hot-swap drive from a Glyph FireWire system interrupts the data signal at the FireWire bus, not on the ATA bus as with other hot-swap systems.
