Product Description: As rich media (photos, video, movies, music) continues to devour your storage capacity, you need a solution that allows you to easily manage, protect, and scale storage for your PC or Mac. For you, we've created Drobo, the first fully automated storage robot to take the pain out of keeping your important digital content safe. This Data Robotics DR04DD10 Drobo enclosure accepts up to 4 internal storage SATA hard-drives (drives are not included) that you set up as an array for both primary and backup storage. Add Drobo, get 4 drives and download at will. Unit Dimensions - Width 6.3 Inch x Depth 10.7 Inch x Height 6.3 Inch Storage Controller Type - Serial ATA (SATA) Includes Power adapter Voltage Required 100-240V AC, 50/60 Hz Data Robotics - 1 Year Limited Warranty Hard Drive Type used - Internal Drobo utilizes a revolutionary storage technology that makes it simple for anyone to use, yet is powerful enough for business. Once you experience the power of Drobo, the idea of keeping multiple external drives or a RAID 5 array will seem as antiquated as that 28.8Kbps modem in the back of your closet Windows, Mac, Linux - Drobo works with all three major operating system platforms and their native file systems Drobo allows you to purchase as much or as little storage as you like up front. Since you can expand at any time, Drobo is the right solution for your budget

Rating: - The Truth about Drobo
I'm posting this to help all the folks who have suffered data loss with the Drobo and posted one star reviews and all the happy customers who have posted four and five star reviews because they haven't had a failure yet. I don't own a Drobo, and am neutral about it. But all the controversy is due to a huge misunderstanding that people have about the Drobo. This misunderstanding is encouraged by Drobo marketing, so they are at least guilty of omission if not misrepresentation.
No matter how you look at it, Drobo is RAID. It's neatly packaged and easy to use, and may be better than ... Read More
Rating: - Lots of trouble but finally working
I'm using it with my Vista Home Premium PC. I formatted a 4TB partition just to be future proof.
Initially I was using USB2. After installing Drobo Desktop, every time I open/close the Desktop, I get a windows registry permission error. I had to click on Continue to make it work, or Quit (3 times) to close it, so I can power off my computer.
The 1st time I copied files to it, I lost a few files and directories, they show up corrupted to Windows, I can not access or delete them. Running chkdsk shows error on the drive. The only thing I can think of is that I only had 750GB ... Read More

This product really do what it is supposed to do and more! in comparison with the Western Digital MyBook world editionWestern Digital WDG2NC20000N My Book World Edition II 2 TB Ethernet External Hard Drive and the Buffalo TeraStation it is so much faster when attached to the DroboShareDroboshare, Network Attached Companion for Drobo as a network storage, really easy to setup and install takes a small space and had almost no notable noise and the fan really emits heat and the Drobo Dashboard software is really very easy and requires no routing or configurations, a really must have product.
Rating: - Drobo Goodtimes So Far..
Got the Drobo FW800 a few weeks ago and so far smooth sailing. I love the convenience of slipping in the raw OEM hard drives and being up and running in no time. As a full time editor the Drobo has proven (so far) to be very reliable and much faster than the external lacie FW800 drives I was using before that would lag when opening folders. The redundancy is peace of mind and that is worth the $500 alone. As far as custom service and support is concerned I have heard some horror stories and that is definitely something to consider---I hate bad customer service! Hopefully I won't need them, but ...

Rating: - Buyer Be Warned!
I bought this 3 weeks ago, I have loaded 1.8 Teravbytes of data 3 times. The unit keeps shutting itself off and won't let me load anything else on it. Support has done nothing to help yet. I will update if status changes. BE WARNED.
1st Update: It has been 5 days and three phone calls to support since the third crash and I still have had no one call me back and help. If I don't hear from them by tomorrow, I'm returning the unit to Amazon.
2nd Update: Finally after another week I received a call back from tech support. They called to tell me they were sending me a new unit ... Read More
