  • No attached backup options
  • Using Mount Network Drive in Windows 10 would often not find the Drobo 5N2

  • NAS pronto all'uso in pochi minuti, Prestazioni superiori al vecchio modello, ma allo stesso prezzo (circa), Possibilità di installare tante app sul NAS, Due porte Ethernet, per Bonding o Failover
  • Prezzo non alla portata di tutti, Non c'è modo di selezionare la modalità RAID
  • Sul fronte del design e della qualità costruttiva, si vede lontano un miglio il fatto che Drobo indirizzi i suoi NAS anche all'utenza Mac, dove il design spesso prende il sopravvento sulle prestazioni. Per fortuna, mirando anche all'utenza Windows, le per...

  • Lüfter laut
  • Die Drobo 5N2 ist ein sehr einfach zu bedienendes NAS, denn der Anwender muss sich weder über Festplatten noch über die Auswahl des richtigen RAIDs Gedanken machen. Die BeyondRAID Technologie sorgt für eine sichere Datenspeicherung. Fortgeschrittene Anwen...

  • Verbesserte Netzwerkperformance mit Link-Aggregation, Extrem einfache Bedienung, Einfaches und verständliches Gesamtkonzept/Nutzerführung, Extrem Flexibel beim Einsatz von unterschiedlichen Festplatten, Kann kostengünstig erweitert werden Einsetzen/Austau
  • Keine wesentlichen Energiesparfeatures, wie automatisches Ein/Ausschalten Keine WOL Funktion, Lüfter könnte Leiser sein, keine Anschlussmöglichkeiten für externe Festplatten
  • Das Drobo 5N2 ist eine durchweg sinnvolle Erweiterung des Drobo 5N für alle User, die mehr Leistung und vor allem mehr Durchsatz auf dem Netzwerk benötigen. Damit zielt das Drobo vor allem auch auf Einsatzbereiche wo von mehreren Systemen auf das Drobo 5N...
