I was wondering if any of you fine folks are using DROBO and DP?
I am and I'm having issues with bounce to disk and I am starting to think it is somehow related to DROBO..I know it sounds crazy but the reason I think this is when working on a project that is on DROBO I can only bounce a file once..maybe twice but after that DP will crash. IF I move the project off of DROBO onto the desktop I get the same issue..
However, if I disconnect DROBO and restart the mac and work from the desktop or any other connected drive (except DROBO) bounce to disk works like it should..at least 97% of the time.
I was having this problem with 9.12 so I went back to 9.02. I haven't tried the latest update yet.
Thoughts?

Re: DROBO and DP question
I looked into the drobo's for awhile and concluded I couldn't trust their integrity based on experience reports and reviews I was able to find online. Proprietary storage systems always let me down in the end. Even Apple software RAID is not to be trusted.

Re: DROBO and DP question
The was my feeling as well but unfortunately I could only argue my point. The final say wasn't up to me.
