The Drobo S adds a fifth bay that gives it even more room (up to 10TB) and dual-drive redundancy that lets owners lose two drives at once without facing actual data loss. It further brings the first use of eSATA to give primarily Windows-based PCs a fast alternative to the normally more Mac-friendly FireWire... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/11/23/drobo.s.adds.esata.and.speed/ Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:40:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/04/07/data.robotics.drobopro/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0904/drobopro.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Data Robotics this morning chased after more than just individual users with the DroboPro. The external array now has 8 SATA bays and can carry as much as 16TB of storage using current hard drive technology. It also expands Drobo's well-known automatic data redundancy by supporting the failure of as many as two disks at once and dynamically shuffling information as disks are added, removed or pa... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/04/07/data.robotics.drobopro/ Tue, 07 Apr 2009 13:35:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/11/26/data.robotics.discounts/ <img align='left' src='http://electronista.macnn.com/content/0706/drobo-2.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />In time for Thanksgiving, Data Robotics today started offering a $50 holiday discount in the form of an instant $50 coupon for the driveless model of its of its Drobo storage robot as well as the preloaded 2TB and 4TB versions. This comes in addition to recent, permanent price cuts to the 2TB and 4TB Drobo. As before, all offer a hot-swappable drive functionality that lets users keep a perpetually... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/11/26/data.robotics.discounts/ Wed, 26 Nov 2008 18:15:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/07/08/drobo.firewire.800/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0807/drobofirewire800.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Data Robotics today gave its Drobo storage robot an often-requested update with an upgraded model that adds dual FireWire 800 ports to the existing model. The extra bandwidth allows a Drobo with more than one drive to potentially transfer data far faster than the existing USB 2.0 connection (up to 50MB read, 35MB write) while providing a free port to daisy-chain other devices.... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/07/08/drobo.firewire.800/ Tue, 08 Jul 2008 12:55:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/01/14/droboshare/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0801/droboshare.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Data Robotics is looking to expand the usefulness of its high-profile Drobo storage unit with today's news of the DroboShare. The underside companion connects to the Drobo through USB and automatically turns the robotic drive into network-attached storage (NAS) with a gigabit Ethernet connection. In contrast to some network drives, the combined storage from the RAID disk array is accessible to a... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/01/14/droboshare/ Mon, 14 Jan 2008 15:40:00 GMT
