Well I just got a Drobo S unit (4 disks) and it is really easy to use but not as sophisticated as my Buffalo TeraStation Pro but so much simpler to use.

I would like a 8 disk version (Drobo Pro) and will get one when I feel the need. The units are very well made but seem to be less sophisticated in their networking. I need to try and get the DroboShare unit that I got to work. I cant seem to get it seen by the DroboDashboard software. In truth I havent tried very hard as I want the unit as a large physically attached disk rather than a NAS unit.


I just read the Scott Kelby article and the responses to his challenge for an alternative solution.

Key thing is technology fails but to have a backup x2.
If it is valuable in digital world then make three separate copies on three different drives!
