Drobo

[Jason Nicolaides]

I would avoid.  We have one of the DroboPro units and I am wary of it's
durability.  We put it into a server rack and the disks didn't come online
the first time we booted the thing.  So I powered it down, pulled the plug,
made sure all the disks were seated properly, etc.  Plugged it back in and
they came on.

I don't trust them.

Cheers,
Jason
