Part of it appears to be associated with the use of green Seagate drives. Green drives do all sorts of tricks to use less power which makes them slow and relatively unresponsive. It's a simple fix; don't use green drives. You'll use a bit more electricity but things will run faster and more reliable.

Yes indeed I already found this with one of the new 1TB drives I got as this was a Green drive. I had to copy all the content of one of my simple in external USB box drives off so I could get to use a standard Seagate Barracuda 1TB drive in the Drobo unit.
The Drobo continues to misbehave with not seeing drives in all slots.
