Here is the link to the Garmin page for Mac software.
My stepson made this box for me for my birthday when he was in grade school. I think he got the box at either Michael’s or A.C. Moore. The gravel is from a pet store and he glued in the cool stick and grabbed a few of the flies I tied. You could do some pretty neat settings with a box like this.
Except that again, all of your disks are in one basket. That is the one advantage of having several single external drives. You can keep a set offsite.
As for the challenge, for some people time is money.
Hey Olle,
The Drobo is more RAID-like than a RAID. Data Robotics uses a system they call BeyondRAID. You don’t have to know anything about RAID. The data redundancy is always a feature of the device. It also supports using drives of different sizes. The latest version of the Drobo also supports two simultaneous failures.
What i would like to know about it is if i have 2 drives in it, can i swap out one of the drives every month or something and will it automatically rebuild the data? Henry, any idea on that?
Yes it will. It has data redundancy built in so that if any drive goes it will be rebuilt. Think of the Drobo as a fancy RAID setup.
We were using SyncBack here at work for a while and it worked out pretty well. There are a ton of features in the pro version. You can target single directories. You can also exclude or include files as needed. It will do versioning etc so you can have working copies of the same file.
I like this one from one of the board members: Hopper Juan
I also like the G2 Roope Hooper
For hopper/dropper rigs I like the BC Hopper.
Stimulators also work in a pinch.
