    Definitely Drobo. I have the DroboS, and it works great. Uses a proprietary RAID 5 setup, so you can use a mixture of drives if you so desire.

    I never use Time Machine. I use Chronosync every hour, along with Dropbox.

    I started a clean install of OS X and Windows 7 with all my apps and fonts installed, then I created an image of both and backed it up onto my Drobo, so if my drives fail, I just reload the image onto the drive in 10 minutes and it's as good as new.

    • what about in the event of fire? or break-in and yer shit gets jacked?M_C_P
    • thats when you grab the drobo and run, or you get really good security, like a bolt-lock and alarm system.twooh
