Has anyone else had as much trouble as we are currently having with these piles of crap? We've used a B800i and a Drobo Elite equipped with WD "Enterprise" 7.2K 2TB disks, per Drobo's recommendation. After about a year without any issues, read performance on these things become abismal. Support originally replaced our Drobo Elite unit, which still ended up having issues after they sent us a new chassis. After more troubleshooting, the Drobo support tech said the problem was the "intense" IO the SQL database residing on that device was causing. Not sure how a 100MB SQL Express database thats barely used or even running can cause "intense" IO but whatever. We moved everything to a QNAP and all is well..
We are having the same issue with our newer B800i unit. Horrible read performance out of nowhere. The only thing that resides on this device are Veeam backups.
These were both host to device iSCSI connections.
Has anyone else experienced these issues with Drobo? Are they just piles of crap?
