Drobo (Second generation)
  • Editors' rating: 3 stars
      Overall score: 6.6 (3.0 stars)
  • User rating: 3 stars out of 23 reviews
Drobo (Second generation) Reviewed on 08/21/2008

The Bottom Line: The second-generation Drobo adds a FireWire 800 connection, but the original USB-only on the now discounted Drobo might be the best bet for Windows users until better FireWire 800 drivers arrive. The device remains the most automated and easy-to-use redundant backup product we've seen.

      Overall score: 6.8 (3.0 stars)
LaCie Biggest FW800 (2 terabyte) Reviewed on 07/13/2007

The Bottom Line: If you need the fast throughput of a locally connected RAID array, the LaCie Biggest FW800 is a good choice, but if you don't mind the slower transfer speeds of Ethernet, a NAS RAID array can be less expensive and offer more features.
