Fortunately, I do have a backup of the critical things on my Drobo. Unfortunately, I don't think I can trust this device any longer. I'll probably continue to use it for non-critical things - perhaps on my media centre Mac mini as an rsync cache of my iTunes library - but it's hard to have any confidence in the device now. For now, I'm going to move the unit to my Mac Mini and let it thrash away for as long as it wants to see if it will eventually recover itself once more.

I'm not writing this primarily to embarrass Data Robotics, Inc. People need to know that their documentation contains a critical data-destroying error.
Wow, this is bad.
