Compatible Drobo Power Supply

This 12V 12.5A power supply replaces the original adapter for Drobo 5D, 5D2, 5D3, 5C, 5N, 5N2, 8D and 810N storage arrays. It supports input voltages from 100 to 240V AC at 50 or 60Hz for worldwide use. The unit delivers 12V output at up to 12.5A and is also compatible with lower current requirements such as 12V 10A, 8.33A, 8A, 7A and 6A. It carries CE and FCC approvals.

Plug-and-Play Installation

The adapter uses a 6.5mm by 3.0mm barrel jack and includes a 94-inch cable for flexible placement. Installation is plug-and-play with no configuration required. Built-in protections guard against short circuits, overheating and overvoltage. The housing uses fire-prevention materials and operates silently. A standard AC power cord is included in the package.

Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 Array Limits

This supply powers Drobo 5D 5-bay Direct Attached Storage Arrays that use Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 connections. It is not suitable for devices requiring a different output voltage or jack size. The 12.5A maximum current sets the practical limit for total drive power draw. Buyers needing higher wattage for larger arrays or different voltage standards should verify their device specifications before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the power supply is working after plugging it into my Drobo 5D?

The unit powers on silently; check that the Drobo status lights illuminate and the drives spin up, confirming the 12V 12.5A output is delivered through the 6.5mm x 3.0mm jack.

What comes in the package and what must I source separately?

The box includes the 12V 12.5A power supply and a detachable power cord; the 6.5mm x 3.0mm DC cable is fixed to the adapter, so no extra cable is needed for compatible Drobo models.

My Drobo 5N2 originally shipped with a 12V 10A brick — should I choose this 12.5A version?

Yes — the adapter covers 12V 6A through 12.5A, so it safely replaces any listed rating including 10A, 8.33A, 8A and 7A units across 5D, 5D2, 5D3, 5C, 5N and 5N2.
