Drobo 5C User Guide 57
1.3.1 Using Best Practices for Protecting Data
While Drobo 5C protects your data from a single drive failure and concurrent 2 drive
failures (when used in Dual Disk Redundancy setting) our data can still be lost. Drive
head crash, damage to the whole 5C device and disk pack, files corrupted before being
saved to the Drobo 5C, unsafe shutdowns, and other traumatic events can result in data
loss.
So to know more specific guidelines on how to best protect your data, please visit
our Best Practices page. For additional information for professionals (Photographers,
Videographers, etc.), please see Photographers, Here’s A Bulletproof Backup Method
Using Drobo.
Important Note:
To help protect your data, if you are unsure on how to proceed when using your
Drobo 5C, it is very important that you review the Online User Guide for your
product, review our Knowledge Base articles, or contact Drobo Support.
