You think you get a deal, mechanicals fail, you need to ship back - pain in the rear. In the long run, the time and aggravation cost money.Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14078114272017539850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644629870779379729.post-45891939747158104062012-06-25T08:47:11.581-07:002012-06-25T08:47:11.581-07:00Good point Libby.

Hi Mar...Good point Libby.<br /><br />It has got me thinking.<br /><br />Hi Mark, If you are happy with Drobo then fantastic - I'm just speaking as I find.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />DrewAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359795436606745114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644629870779379729.post-61279249839173164052012-06-25T08:22:13.908-07:002012-06-25T08:22:13.908-07:00I'm glad you like the QNAPs.

They are quite pricey but they are fantastic devices. I've certainly never looked back. My only regret is that I didn't buy a larger model.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02808875632782157927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644629870779379729.post-24477445313365767452012-06-25T06:51:50.895-07:002012-06-25T06:51:50.895-07:00Hmmm you seem to allude to Drobo in an ominous way...Hmmm you seem to allude to Drobo in an ominous way - third time I've seen that this month from various people.<br /><br />These days I only buy printers or scanners at a reliable local outlet where they can immediately be returned if there is a problem. I got burned on both item types back when. On one printer, it would not even power up, and on a scanner (in the very early days) they motor was start stop, start stop as it scanned. You should have seen the wacko lines in the output. It was just wacky. There was also a gash in the case and I think the thing was dropped at one point knocking something out of alignment.<br /><br />You have a great day!Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14078114272017539850noreply@blogger.com
