I have my drobo for storage at my house. Besides all the rebooting, it's working well. Now, I need to have a device off site at my work. I'm still working out all my files and everything, but I've got my drobo backing things up and a set or bare-drives that stay dark except when I synch them whenever I think about it.

options

1) get a QNAP 439 or 509 and bring the drobo to my work $800-ish (do I really need that much more control since I already have the drobo at home?)

2) get another drobo and bring it to my work $360-ish (then I have a drobo for 2 points of failure)

3) get a 5-bay RAID case $200-ish (why spend so much for something that has no smarts)

4) get a 775 quad core processor and replace the duocore on my desktop, some cheap 533 ram, RAID-card and a case and make a uRAID box. I have a motherboard sitting around doing nothing. ($300-is, but would take more time to set up and then do I bring the uRAID to work and leave the drobo at home?)

5) sit with my thumb in my bum
