This is a very good NAS if that's all you want to use it as. It's easy to set up and use, and there's plenty of room to add extra storage. For any additional functions (FTP, torrent client etc.) you might have to be prepared to get technical, which is ...
Theoretically limitless capacity; Easy to set up; Able to share storage over a network
Not as quick as we'd hoped; Pricey
The Data Robotics Drobo FS network attached storage device is easy to use, hugely flexible and will appeal to anyone who wants to keep their data safe from harm....
Abstract: We all love our NAS. If you don't have one yet, you will love your NAS. Sometimes picking the right one for you may be difficult. Really, it all boils down to what you need. In this NAS Showdown, we are going to pit QNAP against Drobo in a cage match t...

Bonne protection des données, Bonnes performances et facilité d'utilisation, Excellente évolutivité de la capacité de stockage, Addons faciles à gérer avec DroboApps, 5 baies
Pas d'administration web pour le moment, Pas d'utilitaires en standard (serveur FTP, Web, client Torrent, ), Pas de corbeille pour récupérer un fichier effacé, Prix
