Drobo Storage Solutions

Drobo is committed to making sure that our customers spend less time thinking about storage and more time using it in their businesses.

Because we're not just storage: Drobo's different.

Industries:

Application or Environment:

• Server Virtualization

  Server virtualization is becoming an integral component in the design of IT solutions. This should come as no surprise considering the benefits: reduced hardware costs, simplified management, and improved business continuity.

• Multi-Server Environment

  As a business grows, so does the underlying IT infrastructure to support it. As time goes by, servers are added for each application, and the storage for these servers can quickly get out of hand. One key solution for simplifying environments, gaining better control and making the best usage of storage resources is storage consolidation.

• Single-Server Environment

  Small businesses and creative professionals generate a large amount of data that is the life-blood of their business. From accounts receivable to engineering designs to photographs or video, ensuring the safety and availability of that information is critical.

Technology Innovation:

• BeyondRAID Technology

  BeyondRAID technology, built into every Drobo, delivers all of the benefits of traditional RAID, while providing much more and leaving many of the limitations behind. This next-generation of redundant storage technology brings together enhanced protection, reliability, expandability, and ease-of-use.

• User-Driven Design

  While Drobo's internal firmware capabilities revolutionize the way we use and manage storage, that isn't the only remarkable thing about Drobo. It's unique industrial design and user interface take storage ease-of-use to another level.

• Thin Provisioning and Reclamation

  Thin Provisioning is a fundamental capability of BeyondRAID, allowing you to allocate the right amount of storage for today, while allowing you to expand capacity by just adding a drive to the Drobo or replacing an existing drive with a larger one.

• Data-Aware Tiering

  These advanced technologies make Drobos ideal for allowing SSDs and hard disk drives (HDDs) to work together optimally in the same chassis – automatically!
