The Glyph StudioRAID 32TB USB 3.0 FireWire 800 eSATA Hardware RAID Desktop Drive is a 32TB desktop storage unit built on enterprise-class 7,200 RPM drives with hardware RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and SPAN, so you choose between speed, redundancy, and capacity without installing software.
The SR32000 connects over USB 3.0, FireWire 800, or eSATA, which lets one drive serve a current workstation, an older FireWire-equipped edit bay, and an eSATA host. Glyph rates it at up to 360 MB/s, and it ships formatted for macOS.
Power comes from an internal universal supply with a standard IEC cord, so there is no external brick to lose. An aluminum enclosure and a temperature-controlled fan handle cooling.
Glyph SR32000 Features
- 32TB of enterprise-class storage. The SR32000 is the 32TB StudioRAID, built on 7,200 RPM enterprise-class drives. That is enough room for long-form camera originals, multitrack session archives, and project backups on one desktop unit, though mirroring in RAID 1 cuts usable space to about half.
- Hardware RAID without software. RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and SPAN are handled by the drive itself, and Glyph states no software is required. Choose RAID 0 for speed, RAID 1 for a live mirror, or JBOD and SPAN when you want the capacity handled differently.
- Rear RAID mode selector. The back panel carries a RAID switch and a SET button, with markings for RAID 0, RAID 1, BIG, and CLEAR. You change the mode at the unit, which suits a shared edit bay where a computer may not be attached during setup.
- Three host interfaces. USB 3.0, two FireWire 800 ports, and eSATA are all on the rear panel. One drive can move between a modern computer on USB 3.0 and older FireWire or eSATA gear, which extends its useful life in mixed facilities.
- Up to 360 MB/s transfer speed. Glyph lists transfer speeds up to 360 MB/s. Treat that as a ceiling, because real-world rates depend on the RAID mode, the interface you pick, and the host computer. USB 3.0 or eSATA is the practical choice for large files.
- Internal power supply. A 100-240V, 50/60Hz universal supply sits inside the enclosure and connects with a standard IEC cable. You avoid a separate power adapter on the desk, and the rear panel has an Automatic Power switch for on and off behavior.
- Cooled aluminum enclosure. The industrial aluminum case spreads heat from the 7,200 RPM drives, and a temperature-controlled fan works alongside the front vents. That helps during long sustained transfers in a studio or edit suite.
- Warranty and data recovery. Glyph covers the drive with a 3-year full hardware warranty that includes cables, plus 2 years of Level-1 data recovery and 1 year of advance replacement. For a drive that holds client work, that coverage is worth knowing before you buy.
Where the SR32000 Fits
Video editing suites: Use RAID 0 for a fast working volume of footage and render files, then keep final masters on a separate mirrored drive.
Audio production studios: Store session archives and sample libraries on a fan-cooled desktop unit that connects by USB 3.0 or FireWire 800.
Photo and post-production archives: Set RAID 1 for a mirrored copy of finished jobs when protecting the data matters more than capacity.
Mixed-interface facilities: Move one drive between USB 3.0, FireWire 800, and eSATA hosts as machines change.

Does the Glyph SR32000 support hardware RAID?
Yes. The SR32000 offers hardware RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and SPAN, and Glyph states no software is required.
What interfaces does the SR32000 use?
Yes, it has three. The SR32000 connects by USB 3.0, FireWire 800, or eSATA.
How fast is the SR32000?
Yes, it is rated for transfer speeds up to 360 MB/s. Actual speed depends on the RAID mode, the interface, and your computer.
Is the SR32000 formatted for Mac or Windows?
Yes, for Mac. It ships formatted for macOS and works with Windows after you reformat it.
Does the SR32000 need an external power adapter?
No. It has an internal 100-240V, 50/60Hz universal power supply and uses a standard IEC power cable.
Does the SR32000 include an eSATA cable?
No. Glyph lists a USB 3.0 cable, a FireWire 800 cable, and an IEC power cable. Use your own eSATA cable if you want that connection.
Does RAID 1 reduce the usable space on the SR32000?
Yes. Mirroring stores each file twice, so RAID 1 leaves roughly half of the 32TB capacity available for your data.

Yes, it is covered. Glyph provides 3 years of full hardware coverage including cables, 2 years of Level-1 data recovery, and 1 year of advance replacement.
Is the SR32000 the same as the other StudioRAID capacities?
No, only capacity differs. Glyph lists the StudioRAID in 16TB, 24TB, and 32TB capacities, and the SR32000 is the 32TB model.
