Drobo wiith different backup sets


MJH

Recommended Posts

Anyone familiar with Drobo?

 

I was thinking that would it be possible to have 2 sets of hard drives (= 2 backup sets) for one Drobo?

 

I mean that I'd have discs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6.

Discs 1, 2 & 3 would contain Backup Set A.

Discs 4, 5 & 6 would contain Backup Set B.

I'd do a full backup on set A using Drobo and then take the discs (1, 2 & 3) off-site and then do a full backup on set B with that same Drobo. Then back to A again and so on.

 

Ie. I'd like the 2 sets of 3 discs act as 2 separate drives (just like I have now 2 750GB fw-discs).

I've understood that it wouldn't be possible with regular RAID-devices.

 

Anyone knows if it's possible?
