Data Robotics

Declined speedy, new company with limited notability. Corresponding product has an article though so bringing to AfD. Step hen 00:14, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Data Robotics has invented a new technology which is covered in two other Wikipedia articles, both the RAID article and the Drobo article. The company is linked in those articles but the company article was missing so I've added it so those links are no longer broken. The new technology is a fundamental shift from RAID which has been established for over 20 years which is why it's covered in both the RAID and Drobo articles.

Hmmm. I cleaned up the article, cut the fluff, and added two sources that suggest to me that the company could warrant inclusion BUT! I get the feeling that the answer here really is to merge, since I could find only one reference (a BBC report) about the company itself. Daveschaffer might make a good PR person, but his comments only address the technology, not the company, which at this point is really identical with the product.

Keep Looks like an informative and descriptive article. I own four of their products and am glad to see this is here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tservo24 (talk • contribs) 19:55, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I've been developing a story on Drobo and Data Robotics -- I'm surprised that there isn't a page on wikipedia --- two sources have told me Data Robotics are now in the top 10 vendors of network storage devices that cost less than $1,000
