With a dearth of Windows Home Server 2011 solutions on the market from big brand OEMs, a number of system builders have popped up (particularly in Europe) offering a range of models from the humble to the powerful. The UK’s HumuHumu is one such start-up. Launched earlier in the year, the company specialises in WHS 2011 solutions, which boils down to a single configuration at this point (available in a choice of colours). Let’s take a look at it.

Hands On: Fujitsu PRIMERGY MX130 Micro Server
Today we take a look at Fujitsu’s interpretation of the micro server, in the form of the PRIMERGY MX130 – how will it stack up against HP’s ProLiant MicroServer in the battle for small business?

Hands On: HP ProLiant MicroServer
HP’s latest four-bay small server arrives at WGS for the Hands On treatment. Designed for business, the HP ProLiant MicroServer may also be of interest to prosumers looking for a small, expandable home server chassis. Check it out!

Hands On: LaCie 5big Backup Server
LaCie’s first Windows Home Server-powered backup and file sharing solution is here! We Got Served has one of the first units off the production line for review. With increasing interest in the use of the WHS platform in the small business sector, how well will the 5big stack up against HP’s Data Vault? Find out in our hands-on review.
Add-in Review: WHSThumbnailer
Today, I look at a WHS add-in that resizes JPEG files. This is a very polished looking program, but does it work as well as it looks?

Hands On: HP X310 Data Vault
With HP’s new X310 Data Vault, less is very much more. A combination of a reduced hardware specification, cost engineered chassis and streamlined software creates a small business server that performs better than its predecessor, at a lower price.

Hands On: Fractal Design Array Mini ITX NAS Case
In early April we heard news of Swedish company Fractal Design’s latest chassis, a six bay, mini-ITX case designed specifically for network attached storage and home server self builds. Our review unit just landed, and it’s now built and running Windows Home Server Vail Preview. Join us as we get hands on with the Array to see whether it really is a beauty or a beast.
Hands On: VIA M’SERV S2100 Mini Server
VIA release the follow-up to their barebones Artigo A2000 home server – the two bay, all-new, 64-bit Nano packing M’SERV S2100.
Hands On: ASUS Home Server TS Mini
ASUS’ debut home server gets the WGS Hands On treatment. Is this the right home server for you?
Hands On: Lenovo IdeaCentre D400
Lenovo enters the Windows Home Server market with an attractive machine, nice features, but with a “me too” attitude. A little on the pricey side, but it is nice to see more players in the WHS arena.
