"you probably actually don't need anything faster than USB 2.0"
That's false. Video editors (such as myself) need a firewire connection for video editing. USB2 is faster in theory, yes, but it is only in burst speeds. Compare this to the constant high-speed of firewire which will keep our editing programs from slowing to a crawl.
It would be nice to use a Drobo on an editing project and then be able to back it up later to a regular ol' backup drive. The current project at least would have backup all the time in case something happened in the middle.
