Drobo
|
|
|
|
|
|
Drobo is a family of safe, expandable, yet simple to use STORAGE devices
|
|
|
|
|
|
They offer a range of products for IT, professional and home users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The basic principle behind Drobo products are that our data is essential, we need to keep it safe, and we are always going to need more storage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
They’ve designed and built their products fulfill those principles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The other main thing is that a Drobo is simple to use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To protect your data and keep it safe they developed BeyondRAID.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allows you to easily “mix and match” drives in a Drobo
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also makes it easy to expand on the fly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can start with as few as two drives and add as needed
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Drobo Dashboard and their makes it easy to see how much data you have for storage and how much is used for protection and overhead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
All the hard stuff is handled by the hardware and software
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting up the RAID
|
|
|
|
|
|
Monitoring storage. You get light to let you know when you how much storage is used, when a drive is getting full or if you have a failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
And if a drive fails, you just replace it and the Drobo will rebuild everything automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other important features
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some Drobo models offer SSD Accelerated performance. You can add an option mSATA/SSD card.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many are optimized for Time Machine, so you can use them for your Time Machine backups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I have been using both the Drobo Gen 3 and the Drobo 5D
|
|
|
|
|
|
I use them mainly for Archive and backups
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allows me to keep all my movies, photos, and critical files backed up in a redundant system that’s local.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I use the Gen 3 with a Mac Mini on a network, but Drobo also offers the 5N if you want a NAS solution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
And here’s the best part. Maccast listeners can get $100 off a Drobo Mini, Drobo 4-bay, or Drobo 5N at drobo.com/maccast by using discount code CAST100. That’s C-A-S-T-100.
|
|
|
|
|
|
That means you can get a Drobo for as little as $199.00
|
|
|
|
|
|
Big thanks to Drobo.
