Mark Fuccio, Senior Director for Data Robotics, introduces the newest members of the Drobo family, the Drobo S and the Drobo Elite. Mark talks about how Drobo’s Beyond Raid technology puts them in a class by themselves, then delivers a product briefing on their two new Drobos. The Drobo S expands the popular Drobo to 5 bays and adds eSATA support, making it even more attractive for the home and small business market. The Drobo Elite is the big iron in the product matrix, with 8 bays, 2 x Gigabit Ethernet (iSCSI) and support for up to 16 hosts, and is squarely aimed at the corporate market…but that doesn’t mean you won’t want one. Mark talks about the dual drive redundancy built in to the new Drobo S, how you might use the 225 volumes the Drobo Elite supports, why you want to consider buying drives for your Drobo at their store, and more.
