Windows Home伺服器
I have been testing Windows Home Server (WHS) for about 6 months now. I thought I would write a few things about this new product from Microsoft. Basically, WHS is meant to be a computer which will sit in your closet and deliver multimedia content to various computers and other geek gadgets around your house. You are able to create user accounts, stream music and video, and create backups to your home server. Your children can watch a movie on their computer while you listen to your favorite music or vice versa. Saving copies of your files is just like you would do at work if you put them on a network drive.
我已經測試Windows Home Server(WHS)大約6個月了。 我以為我會寫一些有關Microsoft的新產品的東西。 基本上，WHS旨在成為一臺計算機，它將安裝在您的壁櫥中，並將多媒體內容傳輸到您家周圍的各種計算機和其他極客裝置。 您可以建立使用者帳戶，流式傳輸音樂和視訊，以及建立到家庭伺服器的備份。 當您聽自己喜歡的音樂時，您的孩子可以在計算機上觀看電影，反之亦然。 儲存檔案副本就像將檔案放在網路驅動器上一樣。
There is also an automatic backup feature which will back up all your PC’s on your home network incrementally to the server. Adding more hard drive space is extremely easy. You can simply hook up an extra external USB hard drive. WHS will add this to the overall space on your server. One thing to keep in mind with this is that drive becomes a part of a whole. Meaning, it will become part of the overall server space and not an individual drive.
還有一個自動備份功能，可以將家庭網路中的所有PC增量備份到伺服器。 新增更多的硬碟空間非常容易。 您可以簡單地連線一個額外的外部USB硬碟驅動器。 WHS會將其新增到伺服器的整體空間中。 要記住的一件事是，驅動器成為整體的一部分。 這意味著它將成為整個伺服器空間的一部分，而不是單個驅動器。
When booting up Windows Home Server Beta 2 there is always a Windows Server 2003 splash screen. This is because WHS is built from the Sever 2003 technology. I am not sure if you will get this in the final release or not. It is not as complex as Server 2003 however, so don’t be too intimidated. There is no Active Directory to worry about with WHS. You will be able to administer a server at home without having to be an IT geek!
啟動Windows Home Server Beta 2時，始終會出現Windows Server 2003初始螢幕。 這是因為WHS是基於Sever 2003技術構建的。 我不確定您是否會在最終版本中得到它。 但是它並不像Server 2003那樣複雜，因此不要太嚇人。 WHS無需擔心Active Directory。 您將可以在家中管理伺服器，而不必成為IT怪胎！
In the coming weeks I will be adding a lot more how to’s on the site. When Windows Home Server becomes officially available to the public you will have a place to come to get the information you need to start using it quickly and effectively!
在接下來的幾周內，我將在網站上新增更多操作方法。 當Windows Home Server正式向公眾提供時，您將有機會獲得快速有效地開始使用它所需的資訊！
