hi all After reading the previous thread about WD external hard I was a little worried as I have the same in 1tb form. I have been impressed with this ex hard drive so far. being that computers have come late in my years on earth, it seemed a great idea that of plug and play. however I have always thought that when it breaks down especially with me being not that knowledgable with computers it would be a good idea to make backups as well to disc. Now I use a mac and the time capsule is very expensive per GB stored. My question is this is the Drobo external hard drive a better deal for our photos, has anyone got this system? Comments appreciated. Regards. Mike
