Details:

The Drobo B810i disrupts IT economics by delivering advanced iSCSI SAN storage capabilities reserved for expensive enterprise solutions. It is optimized for small and medium-sized businesses that don't have dedicated IT support and it is used to simplify and consolidate both physical and virtual storage in a single array with “on-demand" ability to scale both capacity and performance. With Data-Aware Tiering, the B810i's ability to automatically tier frequently used transactional data from stored data that's seldom used enables businesses to consolidate storage resources, and share that storage across all connected clients and their applications. The B810i model allows for a more effective work collaboration, the storage of creative workflows, and a trustworthy, easy-to-use backup system.
