Aug 7 20:31:46 bubba kernel: VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sde1.
On my eeePC (running Ubuntu 9.04) 'sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt' works just fine (yes the Drobo is identified as a different sd-device).
This is the dmesg output when the Drobo is inserted on the Bubba:

And this is the Ubuntu dmesg output (Ubuntu also automounts the volume, hence the EXT3 messages in the end):
