Data Robotics has expanded the market they cover by introducing a new storage appliance, dubbed DroboPro.
Calling on its experience from the Drobo appliance, of which it has shipped 60,000 units, DroboPro is a storage array for SMBs. DroboPro builds on a virtualized storage platform and includes protection against multiple drive failures. In addition capacity of volumes can be expanded or reduced with thin provisioning.
Like Drobo, DroboPro has a series of lights on the front panel that indicated drive failures and capacity. DroboPro connects to the network with iSCSI and supports as many as eight Serial ATA disks for expansion to 16TB. Drives of different capacities and speeds can be mixed with each other in the DroboPro.
DroboPro also has FireWire 800 connections for Macintosh connectivity and USB connectors. It is available either in a rack-mount configuration or desktop model.
