About this item BeyondRAID leverages RAID’s protection methodologies, including mirroring and striping with parity. However, BeyondRAID applies these algorithms on top of a robust and flexible storage virtualization platform. This removes RAID’s limitations and drawbacks. The eSATA interface on Drobo S transfers data up to 50% faster than FireWire 800. FireWire performance is even up to 25% faster than on previous systems and with enhanced USB 2.0, you’ll have the flexibility to connect to almost any system. Instantly expand your available capacity by hot swapping in an additional drive, or replacing an existing drive with a larger-capacity one. You can do this while your Drobo is operating, allowing you to expand capacity with no downtime! Enable the dual-drive redundancy option to protect your data from failure of up to two hard drives. It’s all done with a single click, and without ever losing access to your data. With its self-healing technology, Drobo S keeps your data safer than ever. Drobo continually examines the blocks and sectors on every drive, flagging questionable areas and ensureing your data is being written only to the healthy areas of your drives.
