My past experiments with RAID just taught me I don't know enough to be able to secure my data, so I thought a Drobo would be a good solution. I've never got on with it much to be honest.

I had 3 2Tb drives and a 1Tb but filled it up so replaced the 1 with a 2. That was 3 days ago now and it's telling me it still needs 3 more days to rebuild itself. That is 6 days of continuous hard drive access. That can't be normal ??? I know 4Tb of data is a lot but 6 DAYS !!!

Cheers
