If you are reading this ad, I am sure you know what these sold for
The first Drobo with 2.5" Drives
"The world's smallest, most advanced storage array"
This now-hard-to-find RAID device is for sale.
Here is some info about it:
"Weighing in at less than 3 pounds when fully populated with 2.5" drives, the Drobo Mini is the ultimate, on-the-go storage companion, delivering the perfect combination of high performance storage and portability.
Small and rugged with a rubberized finish.
Whether you're working at your desktop, shooting and editing photos or videos onsite, or traveling to the next location, it's the world's first high-performance and protected portable storage array. So now you can take and access your valuable digital assets wherever you go.
There's no long, risky process to add capacity to a Drobo - no need to go through the time consuming and complex administration of destroying your RAID sets and recreating with larger drives; and then finally restoring from your backup.
When it's time to add storage capacity to a Drobo, simply insert additional disk drives or replace the smallest disks with larger ones.
The unique compact, carrier-less drive-bay design results in an attractive, efficient storage array that won't dominate your valuable desk space.
If you're running low on space, the wrap-around lights on the front of the Mini tell you exactly what to do.
The innovative, user-friendly industrial design allows you to add or hot-swap larger capacity drives, without tools, on-the-fly, for storage expansion with zero downtime. Capacity expansion anywhere...anytime. It's that simple!
Made of a cutting-edge metallic carbon fiber with a soft-touch rubberized finish.
DATA PROTECTION AND EXPANDABILITY MADE SIMPLE:
Built on award-winning BeyondRAID™ technology with single- or dual-drive redundancy, Drobo Mini protects your data without any user interaction, even in the event of multiple drive failures.
Drives can be added or hot-swapped on-the-fly for storage expansion with zero downtime. If you're running low on space, the wraparound lights on the front tell you what to do. Just add a drive in an empty bay or remove a smaller drive and replace it with a larger one.
POWER OF THUNDERBOLT AND FLEXIBILITY OF USB:
Drobo Mini is equipped with dual Thunderbolt ports for daisy chaining.
Connect up to SIX Thunderbolt devices and/or a non-Thunderbolt monitor at the end of the chain.
This allows even the most portable laptop computers access to high-performance storage while retaining connectivity to other devices and an external monitor.
Drobo is the only storage array that offers Thunderbolt and USB 3.0. This latest USB also offers high-performance connectivity and is backward compatibility with computers running compatible versions of Mac OS X or Windows.
CAPACITY AND PERFORMANCE:
Data-Aware Tiering technology, usually reserved for business-class storage solutions, is also available in this portable Drobo. It intelligently uses the high-performance flash in SSDs to accelerate performance of the storage array, allowing applications such as Adobe Premiere and Apple Aperture fast access to data.
To keep capacity of the Drobo at a maximum, the Drobo Accelerator Bay accepts an industry-standard mSATA SSD, leaving all four 2.5" drives bays available for highcapacity HDDs.
Drobo Mini and the Drobo 5D are the only storage solutions that offer Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 connectivity in the same box.
Multiple thunderbolt ports allow you to simultaneously connect up to six Thunderbolt devices at once. With bi-directional 10 Gbps performance, Thunderbolt technology allows all devices in the chain to achieve maximum throughput.
This latest generation of USB 3.0 offers 5Gbps high-performance connectivity and is backward compatible with any computer running qualified versions of Mac OS X or Windows.
Come and give it a good home!
