The new Windows Home Server, unveiled yesterday at CES, is a software platform designed to help families with multiple PCs connect their home computers, digital devices and printers, in order to easily store, protect and share their photos, music, videos and documents.

Users of the Windows Home Server will be able to automatically back up every Windows Vista or Windows XP-based computer in the home and completely restore a PC to an earlier time. This will help families to easily solve problems with their home PCs.

This cylindrical, glowing device shown above is Microsoft's working version but the design isn't confirmed yet. It is basically an easy to use, plug 'n play server for the family. You can share all your movies, pictures, music, files, etc. with up to 10 users wirelessly and can access your files anywhere in the world via a free personalized domain.

The device is supposed have internal drives, but the storage capacity differs. Microsoft is actually using these as OEM devices and customizing them to different manufacturers needs. HP is releasing their version in Q2 this year with a storage capacity between 500GB and 1TB. There’s also four USB ports and three extra drive bays in case you pirate you run out of storage. The device is expected to cost around $500.
