Continuing our series of “How To…” guides, this guide explains how to use an external hard drive to backup your Windows Home Server Shared Folders easily and without much effort.
WHS Doctor is not an Add-In for Windows Home Server but a stand-alone program that can provide some very useful information about your Windows Home Server.
So the HP MediaSmart Server EX485 and EX487 Windows Home Server has been available now since January 2009, and is the “follow up” to the hugely successful EX470 and EX475 models. I have been using the EX487 as my main production WHS for a few months now and figured it was about time to post the review.
WHS currently controls all of my files, photos and videos. In addition, WHS also controls my other computers, backs itself up, monitors it own power source, could shut itself down if needed and even send text messages to me when it needs attention. What else could it possibly do? Well I have decided that I am going to take the next step with Windows Home Server and give it control over my home.
HP have annoucned that will now release the recent MediaSmart Server 2.5 Update for owners of the EX470, EX475 and LX195. They have also announced the release of the EX485, EX487 and LX195 in Europe.
