Where is the RC-111? Nobody else is making a WHS box either. Is WHS not relevant anymore given the plethora of NAS servers out there. Another month has gone by. Where is the RC-111?

Works as advertised. Have problems with my Mac but that is due to OS Lion. Neither Microsoft nor Apple appear to be working on a solution which is a bummer.

I would expect that this means that they are now entering the supply chain outside of Japan and Malaysia. Anyone know anything?

I saw your previous article about the US having too much inventory, but they don't even list the H342 on their main page any more.Thanks!

The rebuild process takes this into account.It gets is IP address from DHCP, and you have many options to find out what address its been given. Normally you router will show you what IP addresses it has given to what devices. It is a headless server, so doesnt allow a monitor. The rebuild process takes this into account.

Check that your ports are forwarded on your modem. I think WHS remote access uses https or port 443 to connect. Check that your ports are forwarded on your modem.

I finally gave up today and bought a HP ProLiant G6. The ProLiant is 4 inches taller, but I was much happier with the specs. By default the ProLiant gives me a 2nd Gen Intel i3 at 2.93ghz, where the Intel Atom D525 runs at 1.83ghz. The memory speed of the Acer is 800mhz, where the ProLiant runs at 1333. There were other benefits as well. Anyways I got my ProLiant for $399, then bought 4GB of Crucial Server Memory for $38, Then Windows Home Server 2011 software for $49, then will use some of my old harddrives for storage. So for under $500, I got a pretty good server. :) I’ve been waiting for this Acer to be released for like 6 months. I finally gave up today and bought a HP ProLiant G6.
