The Data Robotics DRDR3A21 Drobo S Storage array holds up to five hard drives, which can be added at any time. The enclosure supports hard drive sizes of up to 10TB on a single volume, so you’ll be forward-compatible as disk sizes increase. You can use combinations of SATA drives of any size to manage your storage needs. Drobo S uses the revolutionary BeyondRAID storage technology to protect your data against hard disk crash. When there is more than a single disk in your Drobo S, your data is safe and backed up.
Drobo S provides a FireWire 800, USB2.0 or eSATA interface and an upgraded core processor. It’s a great solution for both primary and backup storage of large media and productivity files such as video, photos, music, audio and other documents. The right side has indicator lights letting you know if everything is OK, if you need to add space, or if a drive has failed.
Drobo S works with all major operating systems, including Windows, Mac and Linux. Now anyone can implement a secure data protection solution.
