Hit up your contacts and add software to the NTG Lab.
They do have a Veeam B & R free, but I'm not sure about limitations other than scheduling.
Well another major limitation to the B&R free besides scheduling is individual file restore - Pretty sure you have to restore the whole thing.

Oh well... that's probably not going to work out very well then. Neat feature to have full desktop recovery but file recovery is generally pretty big on the scale of things needed.

Hold on - That might only apply to the B&R product, not the Endpoint product.. I don't know if it does or not.

Endpoint recovery can do individual files. It is a bit slower to backup though.

Don't go for Drobo! They apply mods to Linux so you'll have hard times recovering data back from their devices. Been there done that (c) ...
Modify Linux? They don't even run Linux!

As is often the case, Wikipedia does not know everything. Straight from Drobo engineering, they run QNX, not Linux. There is Linux on SOME systems, but it is for only certain components and runs on a secondary controller. The Drobo system is always a proprietary UNIX system.
