It's not linux based? I'd really like the Synology one but I can't find the 8 bay under $800-900 used
Nope. No way to get to a console. This is a REAL SAN. There is no NAS under the hood. There is no general purpose OS. It is a special embedded UNIX OS that I can't remember the name of that runs most of it.

Looks like it might be a Powersupply issue from what I found. Probably easy enough to repair if you wanted to replace some capacitors or something (wouldn't do it in production but for a home or lab no reason not too)

Rackspace here was using drobo's but I'm not sure to what extent.

That's a bit mental. I can't imagine what for.

Could be for internal use. They have a lot of community involvement and do maker space stuff. Robot building, programing competitions, Ardunio's etc.

Oh okay.

Simple solution. We didn't even have to reach out to Drobo. Drobo reached out to us and is shipping us a new SAN! Awesome service!!

Great service. Good thing it wasn't a QNAP.

LOL. Well we might get that replaced in a few months.
Isn't that what the QNAP SLA is? -
Had this just happen now. Where you able to save the data by moving the drives over to a new unit?

Another Drobo unit, yes.
