2.3 Checking System Requirements

Check to ensure your operating system and cable interface are supported.

Topics:

Operating Systems Supported

Connectivity Interfaces Supported for Drobo 5D3

2.3.1 Operating Systems Supported

For the most current list of supported operating systems, check the specifications for

your products online at www.drobo.com/products/index.php.

2.3.2 Connectivity Interfaces Supported for Drobo

5D3

Your Drobo 5D3 connects directly to your computer using one of the following

connectivity ports. We recommend that you use the fastest connection you have

available on your computer.

Your Drobo 5D3 device has Thunderbolt 3 and USB 3.0 Type-C interface.

Drobo 5D3 User Guide 10

Notes:

You can only use one connection at a time.

Drobo provides Thunderbolt 3 cable with the device. Depending on the model of

your computer, it may have USB Type-A or Type-C interface. You have to buy a Type-

A to Type-C cable if your computer has a Type-A interface. Speed of data

communication is limited by the slowest interface of your computer and the Drobo

device.

Thunderbolt 3

The Drobo 5D3 has two Thunderbolt ports, enabling you to take advantage of

Thunderbolt's daisy-chaining capabilities. With Thunderbolt, you can daisy-chain up to

six peripheral devices and one display from a single computer. Note that because

Thunderbolt has dual-protocol support (with DisplayPort and PCI Express), you can

connect your computer to Thunderbolt devices or DisplayPort products. You can also

connect non-Thunderbolt devices at the end of a daisy-chain by using Thunderbolt

technology adapters.

Here is the illustrative examples of your Drobo 5D3 in a daisy-chain:
