Re: Windows Home Server In Detail

Lets just wait and see....

It annoys me how things just get cut & pasted without much thought - much easier to just put a link to the source really... but if you look around at other sites / blogs where there is some original thinking going on..... you may find that its not all cracked up to be?

eg.
- Does not use standard things like Raid for its redundancy - so we are introducing a new standard again...
- You will not be able to buy this software and install it on your own equipment - like an old PC.... your going to have to buy a HP (or whatever) server with it all embedded in it...
- The server only works with Microsoft Operating Systems - as each machine needs to have a MS application installed on it to monitor health & versions etc...

Thinking my Raid server can already do all this special stuff - if I was to setup some scripts properly....

Shall wait and see the prices!!!
