For our friends Down Under, the wait is now over thanks to the arrival of HP’s MediaSmart Servers (powered by Windows Home Server software).
Australians are the happy new recipients of home servers that have created so much buzz and excitement here in North America! So it’s no surprise that HP’s recent announcement about the availability of the MediaSmart LX197 and MediaSmart EX490 servers in Australia garnered rave reviews.
Gizmodo Australiasays: “ . . . ultimately I think this is going to be a mandatory box (or a box like it, at least) for every home within the next couple of years.”
PC Authority says: “HP have a really good product on their hands here, and with space for up to 7TB of internal storage, it's an interesting alternative to storing movies, music and pictures in the cloud.”
And more kudos go to HP with the announcement by
Notebooks.com that the HP MediaSmart EX 495 has won its Editor’s Choice Award. Notebooks.com says features that put it over the top were ease of configuration, ease of maintenance and Mac compatibility. They say “The EX495 is the best one I’ve had the pleasure of using and I highly recommend it.”
Congratulations to HP!

P.S. It was Alphaville in an archived post for the introduction of Windows Home Server in
Japan, so it is only fair to mention Men At Work for
Australia.
