"HP's 1.5TB MediaSmart Server ex487 (and its smaller 750GB sibling, the ex485) were just announced hours ago, but that hasn't stopped a few lucky reviewers from putting their hands-on pictures and impressions online for the world to pore over. The biggest knocks that seemed to really grate the nerves of critics were that the single eSATA port was not port-multiplier aware, and despite the bump to 2GB of RAM, the TwonkyMedia and Remote Media Streaming software were still deemed \"quirky and in need of some polish.\" Those gripes aside, the newfangled unit was pretty well adored. In fact, WeGotServed flat-out called the device \"stunning,\" praising HP for its tightly integrated applications that worked fairly well on top of Windows Home Server. For those eying a simple-to-use media server, it looks like HP finally produced one that can be purchased sans regret; the real question, however, is will the outfit push these delectable new features down to existing ex470 / ex475 owners?Read - MediaSmartServer reviewRead - WeGotServed review / hands-on"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
