 I'm in the Drobo booth and you guys know that I'm a big fan of Drobo. I've got the Drobo FS being backed up from the Drobo 5N. I'm sorry, the 5N. What is it? The 5N is going to the FS and we've been using these for years. We love being able to yank out of drives, stick in a new one, no stoppage in service of the devices, but I have Mr. Harrison. I forgot your first name. He's told me three times. So, Rod Harrison here from Drobo to talk about some really cool new services you have. Yeah, so a few weeks ago on April 5th we released a service called My Drobo and My Drobo is a service that lets you remotely access your Drobo from anywhere in the world via Android app or iOS app or any browser. On top of the My Drobo service we've built an app called Drobo Access and Drobo Access is the app I have on my phone right here. This is connected to My Drobo in my home in London and you can access your files, you can create links to share files, you can create passwords on the links, you can put exploration dates on the links. So you have a lot of control and what it really gives you is a personal cloud solution. And the nice thing about Drobo Access is that your files are on your premises, on your Drobo, under your control, not up in the cloud somewhere where you don't really know what's going on with them. I like that you called it personal cloud because a lot of people say it's a cloud. I say, well, a cloud really means it's somebody else's machine, but a personal cloud, that's a better definition. So my audience is very security conscious. We talk a lot about security issues. How is this service getting into my house if I've got a lockdown router? So we actually use a relay partner, but in that relay everything is still encrypted. So we encrypt end to end with AES 256, encrypts in the Drobo, decrypts in your phone or your browser and it's never decrypted in the relay. Now you mentioned something about TLS at the relay? Yeah, we're using TLS V1.2, so it's state-of-the-art encryption and we're using RSA for key exchange. It's a 2K key, so it's the state-of-the-art encryption. It's the best you can get today. Those are all the right words. That's for sure. I like that. So can you actually play a movie or something that you've got on your Drobo? You can play a movie. Right now we'll download it in a couple of weeks, releasing a new version that will actually allow it to stream. Fantastic. And what is that product called? It's a service that's called my Drobo and the app is called Drobo Access. Drobo Access. So we can buy that in the Android store or the app store? The service is free and the iOS and the Android apps are $0.99. $0.99? Access to all of your data. That's changed from a dollar. Oh, okay. See, you're saving money right now. So right now you've got a, this is a Drobo 5D connector via Thunderbolt. All right. And you've got, how many movies are playing there continuously? I think there's 10 or 11 high-def movies, something like that. Wow. So this is, by the way, this is also audio. He's got the 5D plugged in over Thunderbolt to a Mac with, I don't know, like nine movies playing here continuously. And you said you were going to do a scary demo. So if we get this out of the way here, I can show you that if a hard drive fails, I can... Oh no, he's taking the cover plate off. He's pulling the drive. Just pull the drive right out. That drive has definitely failed. The Drobo is still playing all the movies. Nothing skipped. Didn't drop the frame. I lied. I said nine. There's more than nine. It'll email you that something's gone wrong. It'll pop up an alert, as you can see on the screen there, to tell you something's gone wrong. And it'll just keep going. It's just a very visual way to show you that you still have access to all your data while this drive has failed. No, is it trying to restripe the data to the other drives right now? It's flashing red, green, which means it's self-healing. Now, I got to tell you, you don't have to believe my new best friend, Rod. That is your name, right? It is my name. Yes, ma'am. You don't have to believe him. We have had this happen where our drive fails. We each get an email. It tells us a drive fails. We go over and we pull it out and shove it in another one of pretty much any size. I mean, no matching required. And it just comes right back. It's almost fun when it happens. It's like, oh, look, it actually works. They're not lying about this. This actually does work. It's scary, but fun. Yeah, any drive, any manufacturer, any size, just pop them right in. No screws, no carriers that go in like an old-fashioned VHS cassette. Yeah, it really does. Are you going to shove it back in there? I'll shove it back in. There we go. He's going to make it happy by sticking it back in. So we pulled the cover plate off the front and just stuck it in. The little blinky lights actually help quite a bit in this one. Yeah, absolutely. You can see what's going on. You can see it's still working. And you can see which drive has failed. Yeah, so exactly. So if it actually had failed, it would have a red flashing light on it. Now, we also put the SSD accelerator card in on our five-end. Does the 5D also do that? The 5D does have the M-side accelerator on the bottom, yes. Yeah, and I don't know if that makes a difference because we're comparing it to an FS, but this thing is unbelievably fast. I'm really, really happy over gigabit to the 5N on our speed. Yeah, the accelerator card does make quite a big difference, particularly the things that you use very frequently. Yeah, yeah. Now, there was something that, Iliana, wanted us to show on the Drobo dashboard, right? What were we going to do there? I forget. I'm not sure what we wanted to show, but we can show the Drobo dashboard real quick. So this is the management application that we call Drobo dashboard. And that controls everything you need to do with your Drobo. And there's really only one question you need to ask yourself. If we go into settings here, this is the only question. Do you want dual or single drive redundancy? That's really it. Which just means do you want to be protected against one drive failure or two concurrent hard drive failures? We should go look at that. We've got it one. That's the hardest question you have to answer to set up a Drobo, which is how important is my data to me. But this is also how you get to the Drobo app. So would you do anything in the Drobo firmware here or Drobo app? Would you do something here in order to enable the MyDrobo service? Yeah, so if this was a network Drobo, there would be another tab on the left for Drobo apps. If you went to Drobo apps, you'd install the MyDrobo app, and then whichever apps you wanted. We have Drobo access, we have Coken, which is a photo app, we have WordPress. So you can just install whatever app you want to run. WordPress? We have WordPress. You can host a blog or a website on the Drobo app. Now isn't that interesting? So that works on your network attacks, George. That wouldn't work on the 5D, correct? That's correct. The Drobo 5N or the Drobo B810M. All right. Well, this is really cool. So people want to send you money. Where should they go? They should go to Drobo.com. And from there, there's a link to all the products. There's lots of explanations there. There's a Drobo capacity calculator where they can play around and move drives in and out to see exactly how much space they need. I love that calculator. I really do it because we said they're going, okay, how many drives are going to go by? I've got four or one terabyte drives. Well, that's not going to do me enough. So you can keep adding drives and changing the configuration until you can see am I going to have enough capacity for what it is I want to do. Yeah, it's very cool. Very easy to use. And also there's a link to our Drobo store there as well. Definitely a really good UI to that. All right. Well, thank you very much. Appreciate you taking time with us today. Thank you. It's a pleasure.
