Replacing a dead Drobo 5n - Enquiries - 09-30-2024

My Drobo 5n died. My problem, not yours. I'm looking for a much simpler replacement. I'm thinking in terms of a 2-bay unit, set up as JDOB (?). I want to treat the 2-bay unit as a single driv e. Want backup scheduled and run from the unit to an external drive connected to it via usb. It primary use will be to host music files (mp3's), and secondary, to back up pc's. Simple is better, as I am not very hardware savvy. I keep finding pros and cons for Synology, QNAP, Asustor, and TerraMaster. Planning on making a purchase this eminently, so the sooner I hear from you would be great. Don't want a dead Drobo and have buyer's remorse. THX.
