Review summary Microsoft's Windows Home Server is the best, easiest-to-use answer to backing up and corralling all of the disparate media files in a networked home. And delivered in this petite, relatively affordable MediaSmart Server ex745 from HP, you get plenty of storage in a well-designed hardware package. We recommend this system all the way to anyone looking to take full control of their data. For budding small businesses or midsize companies that have already endured their growing pains, the IBM xServer 226 is a wise investment. This server's solid components, economical price, and lack of manageability software make it most appropriate for budget-minded small businesses with just a few employees.
