A much more cost effective option is to use the open source home networking offering from www.amahi.org -- use your own hardware, and get all that Drobo offers (and more!)
Use your own "old" hardware --take a look at http://www.amahi.org -- open source software for running your home netowrk (with all the functionality of Drobo and more!)
THe most powerful software for the home is from www.amahi.org Preconfigured to handle machine backups, file sharing, user management, a VPN for remote access, calendars, media server (coming shortly), a wiki, etc. it is leagues ahead of what is out there!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new laptop, and I want a 13-incher. I need something with a great keyboard for typing, as this will mostly be used for note taking in class. I am absolutely smitten with the XPS 13, but I'm afraid that with its age Dell is going to give it an update soon. Any advice for someone in my shoes?"
