Please excuse the blunt question. But I am in need for an easy redundant and large disk solution (read: easy). I've known about Drobo for years and have read countless reports on it's insanely slow read/writes and the days it took to rebuild. To the point where I wondered how their marketing team found an angle to convince others to even purchase them.
After taking another look tonight it seems things may have changed. At least on the site I was looking at tonight I was seeing 200+MB/s read speeds.
Can anyone say they are actually getting 100+MB/s read/write speeds on their Drobo? If so it will perform better than any of my single HDD docks that have been doing the task of juggling multiple HDDs and it may be time to go with a multiple drive solution.
