@bbiAngie Like you, I have an aging Drobo B800i. In February they launched a replacement the B810i. I bought one in March plus new 6TB drives and copied my data over. The B810i replaced the B800 - we use it for media storage as well as Time Machine backups for 4 Macs. I'm using the B800i as backup of the new B810. The B810i is faster, they've optimized it for multiple users - it doesn't destroy watching movies if a TM backup starts. I use it in a Mac environment -- home media. I've purchased, used, and sold a ReadyNas unit 60drive unit. I've purchased and returned a Synology unit (way too complex to set up, horrible support from the company -- they don't even take phone calls). For me, Drobo is best.
