About the Studio mini
The Studio mini is a bus-powered hard drive. With its tiny enclosure, it’s small enough to fit into a pocket, and powerful enough
to support high track-count audio sessions. With USB 3.0, FireWire 800, and eSATA interfaces, Studio mini is compatible with Mac,
Windows and Linux systems. Designed with a fanless, light aluminum enclosure, it allows you to work on the road easily and reli-
ably. If bus power is not available or is insufficient, an official Glyph power adapter is available for purchase as an accessory.
Capacities and Speeds
Studio mini drives are available in 7,200 RPM and SSD models. All models of the Studio mini perform well in an audio environ-
ment, however the SSD models have the highest performance.
Ports
If you choose to connect your drive using USB 3.0, use the supplied USB cable. In the vast majority of configurations this USB cable
will provide both the fastest data connection available and simultaneously power Studio mini. This is the preferred and optimal
connection for operating your Studio mini.
On the rear of the Studio mini there are two FireWire 800 ports, one eSATA port, and a USB 3.0 port. Officially, FireWire 800 ports
are IEEE 1394b ports that run at up to 800Mbits/sec. One of these ports should be connected to your computer, and the other
should be connected to other downstream FireWire devices. It doesn’t matter which port you connect to the computer, they are
functionally identical. If your computer has a FireWire 800 port, use the provided FireWire 800 9-pin cable. If your computer has a
FireWire 400 port only, you can use a FireWire 800 to FireWire 400 converter cable, available from Glyph (part# CAB-FW800-9/6-2).
If your computer doesn’t have any FireWire ports you will need to purchase a FireWire adapter card. Check the Glyph web site for
suggestions.
If you choose to connect your Studio mini using eSATA, you will need an eSATA port on your computer. The Studio mini does not
ship with an eSATA cable.
