I was perusing Newegg last night looking at external hard drives and came across the Drobo line of products...this one jumped out at me... incidentally today it is unavailable but it was there last night for around $1600.
Just wondering if people like these things. It seems it would be nice to have a device that could add drives and increase the volume size automatically (assuming I went with one that didn't come with drives) I'm a little iffy on the connection options... 10 Tb and USB? Sounds pretty stupid. Anybody think it would be better just to build a pc and add sata drives or would something like this be the way to go? I'm just looking for lots of space for backup and movies and music.
