Rather poor app selection, mostly old versions too. Support decidedly flakey. However, if you are not expecting too much, it serves files and is working as a DLNA media server.
Edited to add: now its fan is failing. Also, if you update one of the Drobo supplied apps with a newer version with security fixes direct from, for example Resilio, the Drobo keeps nagging you to back-level it. One more star removed.
New edit: Latest Dashboard version shows very explicitly what is wrong with its app version checking. Screen shot added which shows "new" version is older than "old" version.
And a newer edit: After one year, this Drobo has now gone into its notorious boot-loop problem. Because this device is a total black-box, there's no way to do any diagnostics on it at all. Also, because it uses a proprietary disk format, there's no way to recover any data. This is the most expensive paperweight I've ever bought. Absolute rubbish.
