The 5N2 special editions are an enhanced Network Attached NAS solution for data sharing, secure backup, remote access and disaster recovery solutions.

Drobo 5N2 special editions are designed to optimize and simplify workflow in connected homes and small office environments using Drobo’s simple, safe and smart BeyondRAIDTM technology. Using the solution as a central backup in a connected home, multiple computers can speedily access the rich media files. Small office environments can utilize secure file sharing and Drobo’s Disaster Recovery (DR) feature to automatically backup the data to an offsite 5N2. To extend the functionality of the Drobo, 5N2 special editions are compatible with the myDrobo App Platform, allowing for remote access to data, media streaming and cloud backup.

Data Protection and Expandability Made Simple
Built on award-winning BeyondRAID™ technology with single- or dual-drive redundancy, Drobo 5N2 special editions protect your data without any user interaction, even in the event of multiple drive failures. In addition, Drobo’s simplicity provides a quick, seamless setup and software configuration is not required to access storage on your network.

Drives can be added or hot-swapped and updated in real time for storage expansion with zero downtime. Just add a drive in an empty bay or remove a smaller drive and replace it with a larger one, when needed.

High-Speed Connectivity
The Drobo 5N2 special editions are equipped with dual Gigabit Ethernet ports for network connectivity and makes sharing your data easy by connecting directly to the network. The two ports provide bonding support, also known as Adaptive Link Bonding, for link failover and aggregation without Ethernet switch support. This increases performance and compensates for network connection problems.

Capacity AND Performance
Usually reserved for larger enterprise-class storage solutions, the Drobo 5N2 special editions give you the option to implement Hot Data Caching through the Drobo Accelerator Bay (128GB mSATA SSD card included). This feature intelligently uses high-performance flash to accelerate performance, allowing the fastest possible access to your data.

The myDrobo Platform
The myDrobo platform extends the functionality of Drobo NAS devices by providing a secure and fully end-to-end encrypted path to selected Drobo Apps.

The iOS and Android app, DroboAccess, allows Drobo NAS owners to access their data anywhere, anytime through a secure and encrypted network. This allows Drobo consumers and SMBs to quickly and easily setup their own private cloud storage solution with the ability to view documents from a web browser or from the DroboAccess mobile app.

DroboPix app allows owners to easily and automatically upload their photos and videos from their Android or iOS device to a network Drobo. The files are automatically uploaded over Wi-Fi and are securely backed up and protected on a Drobo. Power Protecting Your Critical Data

Drobo doesn’t just protect you from a drive failure, but also from potential data loss after a power outage. Drobo 5N2 special editions include a battery that protects all data in memory, or cache, that is, data on its way to the drives. When power spontaneously goes away, the battery keeps the Drobo alive long enough for the data to be written to non-volatile storage.

Drobo Disaster Recovery
With Drobo DR you can set up a pair of 5N2s special editions to automatically make an offsite copy of your data. Simple to set up and manage, the reliable DroboDR seamlessly replicates your data to another 5N2 special edition ensuring data availability in case of disaster. Even better, the remote 5N2 special edition stores all user account information so recovery is painless.

Designed for You
Drobo devices have always been space efficient and the Drobo 5N2 special editions are no exception. It was designed from the ground up to provide very high capacity without taking up a lot of your valuable desk space. It is compact because of Drobo’s unique carrierless drive-bay design, allowing drives to be installed very close to each other.
