The much anticipated Windows Home Server PowerPack 1 was released overnight - download it here.

Power Pack 1 (love that name) provides a bunch of new stuff including:

  • Support for home computers running Windows Vista x64 editions
  • Backup of home server Shared Folders
  • Improvements to remote access
  • More efficient power consumption and better performance.

And, of course, it delivers a fix for the much reported data corruption bug. Documentation for Power Pack 1 is available here.

Lots of good blogination building for Home Server as well & you can expect to see us doing a lot more to push this product in Australia in the coming months. Quick listing of resources to consider:

Lastly - we've just received a bunch of Windows Home Server 180-day trial editions & so if you'd like a bo-peep at one, drop me a line. They're the pre-update code however & so you'll still need to download the PowerPack, but hey, they're free.

Cheers,

Robbie
