Akhil,
In that case why complicate matters? Just use external drives, like I do. At
least my data is not backed up with proprietary software that nothing else
can decipher in case of extremis. What advantage would a Drobo bring other
than a modicum of convenience? Would someone enlighten me, please, if I am
missing something?
Cheers
Jayanand
