About this item

• BeyondRAID leverages RAID's protection methodologies, including mirroring and striping with parity. However, BeyondRAID applies these algorithms on top of a robust and flexible storage virtualization platform. This removes RAID's limitations and drawbacks.
• Attach DroboPro directly to a server or workstation, or to a shared server or workstation on a network that can provide access to multiple clients. Interface options include iSCSI (using Gigabit Ethernet), FireWire 800, and USB 2.0.
• Instantly expand your available capacity by hot swapping in an additional drive, or replacing an existing drive with a larger-capacity one. You can do this while your Drobo is operating, allowing you to expand capacity with no downtime!
• Enable the dual-drive redundancy option to protect your data from failure of up to two hard drives. It’s all done with a single click, and without ever losing access to your data.
• Create up to 16TB volumes in seconds with DroboPro's Smart Volume management technology. Manage them with ease, as you pull storage from a common pool of disks rather than a specific physical disk allocation. Resizing and migrating volumes is simple.
