G-Technology vs Drobo

When it comes to backing up your photos have any of you tried one of those out of the box RAID units?  

I don't have a PHD in engineering so looking for something that is as user friendly as possible.

Both are solid picks.  How many photos are you looking to back up and how are you looking to update?

Go with the G-Tech, good brand.  I want to say they are sold in Apple stores.  Drobo - never heard of.

Thanks guys.  I don't suppose you can suggest which can be accessed via remotely?

Isn't G-Technology sold in Apple stores or am I confusing this with another company?
