Drobo is a clever little box that houses and manages multiple drives, of any capacity and manufacture, and backs up your data without you having to know anything about Raid, slipping seamlessly between Raid 1 and 5 when its senses the need.
Retailing at about $500 it connects via USB 2, though firewire is rumored to be on the way in the future.
