Coriolis Systems – StumbleUpon. Drobo have their own set of issues that make them unrealiable storage in my opinion. I wonder if they ever solved this issue? They didn’t follow up on this post. I will send them an email and ask.
This was the email text I sent to them.

You have a post hosted that talks about the incompatibility of iPartition with Drobo. Is that still an issue and can you update that article? I have bought your software and want to use it to help a friend with a drobo.
I heard back from the company and according to them this is still an issue. I wonder why Drobo doesn't seem to care about fixing this?
The information in this video talks about a partition on the fellow’s Maxtor external hard drive…..not the Time Capsule.
As mentioned previously in this thread…..it is not possible to “partition” the Time Capsule drive unless you physically remove it from the Time Capsule case….which will void the warranty.
If you want to reserve a given amount of space on the Time Capsule drive, you can set up a disk image, which is similar to a partition.
Value wise I’d have to call the [Seagate BlackArmor]NAS220 as the winner with two 1TB drives already installed, but it’s not the fastest according to my tests, and it does have some limitations as well.
I have another review from this site as well Seagate BlackArmor 110. Very detailed and plenty of user comments as well. A great resource.
Seagate BlackArmor NAS 110 1TB NAS Box. This is a concerning read. Many users of various versions of this product line had problems with reliability, performance and usability. One mac user said it was a poor choice for mac compatibility. If you buy this, make sure the store has a good return policy.
