Glyph Technologies will introduce the new GT Series twodrive rack kit at the NAMM Show in Anaheim. The kit is designed to mount any two of Glyph’s GT Series tabletops using a single rack space. These include the GT 050, GT 050Q, GT 051, and the new GT 062. It will also mount future members of the GT Series, such as FireWire 800 versions of the GT 051.

In an effort to fit two 8.6-inch tabletop drives in the width of 17 ¾ inches, Glyph needed
to get creative in the design of the kit. The kit includes two rack ears, each one
connecting to the outside of a tabletop drive with three screws. Also included are two
metal plates that connect to the inside of each drive, held in with 4 screws each. Finally,
the two metal plates are connected together with 4 screws, which sandwich the two drive
enclosures together.

Made of heavy grade steel, the rack kit is extremely durable and designed to hold the
weight of Glyph’s beefy, all-metal drive construction. It has a black powder-coat finish
that matches all GT Series drive products. Since all GT Series tabletops have the same
mounting hole locations, the rack kit can be used to mount any two models for many
fixed-mount and hot-swappable drive combinations, using only a single rack space.
“Our customers have asked for precisely this solution. Rack space is a valuable
commodity and our customers need ways to get more out of the space available to
them,” explains Peter Glanville, Marketing Director for Glyph. “We decided to create and
inexpensive, flexible solution which is compatible with all of our GT tabletops.”
Backed by Glyph’s legendary service and technical support, GT Series enclosures are
covered under warranty for three years. Hard drives come standard with an additional
Overnight Advance Replacement warranty in the first year. The GT Series is available
through authorized Glyph dealers. Please check Glyph’s website for details.
The two-drive rack kit is available now. For more information, Glyph can be reached at
