Setting Up Your DroboPro with iSCSI

Using DroboPro with iSCSI will yield the best possible performance from your DroboPro.

However, to use iSCSI, you will first need to establish communications between your

DroboPro and a host computer using your USB cable.

Once communications has been established, depending on the setup you choose, you may

need to manually assign an IP address to your DroboPro. Finally, you will safely shut down

your Drobo device, unplug the USB cable and plug in the Ethernet cable to use iSCSI.
