| Data Robotics - the makers of Drobo, the World's First Storage Robot - develops automated data storage products designed to ensure data is always protected and easy-to-manage. Drobo is infinitely expandable and provides RAID-like reliability. Unlike other storage arrays, however, Drobo uses patent pending software that is designed for non-technical users who demand reliability without the complexity of RAID.

Drobo has received prestigious Editors' Choice awards from CNET, PC Magazine, and Macworld, among others.
