I thought it would be able to act like a Drobo and you'd be able to swap out a failing drive without losing everything.  I don't know if I'd put multi-terabytes of content on there without some sort of redundancy.  Or maybe you can, you just have to shut it down first.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael Scrip]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 5:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer easyStore H340 Windows Home Server eyes-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[In Windows Home server, you cannot just take out the drive like a Drobo. You have to go to the control panel and tell Windows to "remove" the drive from the pool, then after it did what it need to do to keep the data (copied it to the other drives), it will tell you that you can remove the drive. This can take a while when dealing with terabytes of data. Not as convenient as the drobo for sure, but you don't have to shut the machine down. Adding a drive, however, is plug-n-play. Just shove a new drive in, Windows will automatically detects it, and you just tell it to add the drive to the pool. Redundancy, unfortunately, is not on by default in Windows Home Server, you have to specifically tell Windows to do folder duplication on the folders you want redundancy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pika2000]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 5:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer easyStore H340 Windows Home Server eyes-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[The non hotswap drive is the OS one, so effectivly you lose a drive bay, which seems a little pointless. Why they can't put the OS on an internal SSD/flash drive I don't know. Small quanities of flash cost practically nothing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2009 5:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Acer easyStore H340 Windows Home Server eyes-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/05/acer-easystore-h340-windows-home-server-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[I prefer the Altos design.
