Windows Home Server 2011 Ready for Release
Microsoft this week announced the release to manufacturing of Windows Home Server 2011 and Windows Small Business Server Essentials 2011. This milestone marks the end of the development period for the products, as the company now works with partners to ship the product to users via dedicated hardware and software packages.
Both products will be made available in 19 languages including Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional, Taiwan), Chinese (Hong Kong), Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish.
MSDN and Technet subscribers will be able to download the software early in April, and you can expect online resellers to carry the system builder versions of Windows Home Server from early May. Pricing for the latter has yet to be announced.
In their RTM announcement, Microsoft state that “many” hardware manufacturers are preparing dedicated Windows Home Server 2011 hardware, to ship in May, but have yet to reveal who those manufacturers are. Earlier in the year, the company indicated that Acer and Tranquil PC would support the platform.
Meanwhile, Microsoft have published a number of advisory Knowledge Base articles regarding troubleshooting steps for the platform.
The key question in many WHS v1 users minds is whether to make the leap to upgrade to the new platform, which includes a variety of benefits due mainly (but not exclusively) to the shift to the underlying Windows Server 2008 R2 platform. We’ll be running an in depth feature on reasons to upgrade (or not) in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
In the meantime, we look forward to bringing you news of Windows Home Server 2011 hardware as it appears.
