All the drives were fine but it took a recovery service 3 weeks to rebuild everything because of the software and hardware that Drobo was using in the unit and had to replicate it 100% in order to be able to access my drives. Once they got the drives to show up they had to run recovery software and move all the images to a new unit. Luckily I had everything except the last 3 weeks on CD/DVD/Blu-ray and all my zoo images on another 8TB drive except for the last 3 weeks. It was those last 3 weeks I needed the most at the time as I was working on a zoo project at the time. My old system was to back-up once a project is completed not in the middle. But now I have a spare drive I use to back-up in progress projects and do that each tiome I edit or cull a batch of the project……. I also knew 2 other people within 3 months time of me that also had their drobos fail for the same reasons and found their drives still had the images on them but couldn’t directly read the drives like me.
