Data Robotics - the makers of Drobo, the World's First Storage Robot - develops automated data storage products designed to ensure data is always protected and easy-to-manage. Drobo is infinitely expandable and provides RAID-like reliability. Unlike other storage arrays, however, Drobo uses patent pending software that is designed for non-technical users who demand reliability without the complexity of RAID. Key Features of Drobo includes some of the most advanced automated features available - including self-monitoring, self-healing and an easy-to-understand visual status and alert panel. Together with DroboShare, Drobo can easily be connected to a local area network to share data.

The safe, expandable Drobo™ storage solution protects your data against a hard drive crash, yet can expand dynamically at any time in just seconds. With nothing to configure or manage, Drobo is now the ideal solution for primary storage as well as backup.
