Drobo Pro a good product?

Asked by MaCuban in Storage Technology, Hard Drives & Storage, File Servers

Tags: Drobo pro, storage, raid, NAS

I am looking into this as a solution for file storage in the office. Does anyone have any experience or feedback?
We will likely use it to host our DFS filestore (over iSCSI), and it will have operationally critical data on it. We would like to migrate our file server off of a 6yr old box and this looks to offer reasonable redundancy (at the disk level) for the cost. Response time and sustained throughputs for the device are not concerns for us, even the operations critical stuff.
