Review: The Drobo Mini is all about ease of use<article>
<section class="page">
<p>
If you’re looking for a traditional RAID enclosure, the Drobo Mini probably isn’t for you. If you’re looking for a fast multi-drive enclosure, the Drobo Mini
really isn’t for you. The Drobo Mini is geared toward people who don’t know, and don’t want to know
anything about RAID, who might have a handful of drives they’d like to put to use.</p><p>
With a Drobo Mini you don’t have to use identical drives, or even drives with the same capacity or speed. You can throw a 80GB drive and a 500GB drive in a Drobo and it’ll give you as much protected storage capacity as it can without you having to do anything. That said, the Drobo doesn’t always act as you might expect, and the extreme ease of use comes at the cost of performance.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2602220/review-the-drobo-mini-is-all-about-ease-of-use.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
