In this video I unbox and give a brief tour of a HP MediaSmart Windows Home Server. It's a very compact unit with plenty of space for adding more storage and it has plenty of expansion options.  So have a look at this video and then compare it with the video I recorded of Tranquil's Windows Home Server.

The next video should be of setting up the server on my network

Ian,

Love the site.  Very helpful.  I picked up the HP MediaSmart.  Love it so far.  I bought a Terrabyte hard drive, dropped it in the server and it actually worked exactly as it should, very easy.

My question is, how can I get the MediaCenter interface through my XBOX with the Home Server?  The XBOX (360) picks up automatically that I have a Windows Home Server and I can play songs, photos, video, etc.  But it is not the nice MediaCenter interface.  I do have a Vista Laptop and I was able to connect the XBOX to the laptop MediaCenter then have a Laptop connect to the WHS.  But that solution is not effective and requires the laptop to serve the data.  Not what I want.  I should be able to get the MediaCenter interface directly with WHS.
