Short and simple... it's a crock...
It's basically cut down version of WS2K8 with media streaming and a
backup program for your pc's.
You can only administer it via it's bespoke GUI.
Buy a decent NAS (Say like an ICYBOX or a Synology diskstation) stick in
2 * 1TB drives and mirror them then take the $300 you've saved and go
for a great meal....
If you've got a spare PC I'm sure there is a evaluation download
available, it's in the action pack otherwise, I tried it and went down
the NAS route with 750 GB of data at home.

Anyone have any real world experience with this? I just stumbled=20
across it yesterday and it sounds great for managing large amounts of=20
data (but I'm skeptical because MS can make anything sound better than
it is).
