The Road to Macworld takes a road trip to Drobo headquarters in San Jose, where CEO Geoff Barrall introduces us to the newest member of the Drobo family. The most affordable Drobo ever joins the party just as more people are creating more content and need something that protects all those photos, videos, scanned documents, and more. Geoff explains how the newest Drobo is similar but better than the legacy USB 2.0 and FireWire units, how its introduction fulfills an objective the company had from the beginning, and outlines a special upgrade offer for owners of the original models.
The Road to Macworld/iWorld 2014 is a special MacVoices series produced in partnership with Macworld to preview some of the exhibitors and presentations at Macworld/iWorld 2014 at the Moscone North in San Francisco, March 27-29.
