create a new volume using Drobo Dashboard's Volume
Management.
Q. How can I tell how much capacity my DroboPro/DroboElite has
left?
A. The main page of Drobo Dashboard provides the most accurate
information. See page 17. You can get an approximate idea by simply
checking the blue capacity gauge on the front of your
DroboPro/DroboElite. Each blue light represents 10% of available
capacity that contains protected data. If you observe three blue
lights, you have approximately 70% still available for data.
Q. Will my computer tell me how much space is used on
DroboPro/DroboElite?
A. Yes, actual space used is represented accurately by your OS. The
volume size, however, will show as the size you created,
independent of the actual drives in your DroboPro/DroboElite.
Q. How can I wipe all the data from my drives and reset my
DroboPro/DroboElite?
A. WARNING: THIS PROCEDURE WILL CLEAR ALL THE DATA STORED ON
DROBOPRO AND DROBOELITE. There are two ways to reset your
DroboPro or DroboElite. First, in Advance Controls > Tools tab, click
the "Reset..." button. The on-screen instructions will walk you
through the process.
The second way is to first shut down the DroboPro/DroboElite. Next,
locate the small unmarked reset pinhole on the back of DroboElite
(opposite side from the power button). Insert a straightened paper
clip through the unmarked hole. You should be able to feel the
switch depress. While still depressing the switch, power on the
DroboPro/DroboElite and hold the switch depressed until the power
indicator starts blinking green. This will take approximately 30
seconds.
Q. Do I need to format new drives that I add to DroboPro/DroboElite?
A. When you add a drive to an empty Drive Bay or upsize an existing
drive after the initial formatting, you will get immediate access to
any additional capacity. You will not have to format each drive added
to your Drobo storage device.
