ASUS today launched its home server which leverages the Windows 7
operating system to improve data management, enhance media streaming,
and better utilize home networks. The ASUS Home Server TS mini is
designed to simplify a user’s digital life by centralizing photos,
music, videos, and other digital content from multiple home computers
onto a single repository—thereby enabling easy storage, sharing, and
securing of digital assets within a home or remotely via the Internet.
Equipped with an Intel Atom processor, the TS mini delivers efficient,
24/7 performance. Operating on the Microsoft Windows Home Server
platform, it simplifies management and protection of digital content.
The TS mini features 2GB of DDR2 memory, Gigabit Ethernet support, up
to 4TB of internal storage, exclusive 500GB of online storage, six USB
ports, and two eSATA ports to meet future growth requirements.
Easy Backup and Restoration of Home Computers
The TS mini functions as a data management center, automatically
backing up data from up to 10 computers daily. In a recovery scenario,
users can easily restore files or bring computers back online by
loading the latest information saved on the TS mini.
Convenient Content Sharing at Home and Easy Remote Access
The TS mini makes it easy for users to stream photos, music, video and
other digital content to various devices in the home including TVs,
computers, media PCs, and gaming consoles—for comprehensive home
entertainment access. By using the Remote Access feature, users away
from home can also leverage on their personal Windows Live™ accounts to
access the TS mini and its content. Additionally, they can stream music
and multimedia content through the online connection.
Large Data Capacity with Exclusive Web Storage
For additional storage capacity, the TS mini provides a year of free
500GB storage over the Web. Users can boost their storage or
synchronize backups online for improved data security. Additionally,
users can save large peer-to-peer files directly to the web storage,
and host files which can be linked to from social media sites such as
Facebook and Twitter.
Enhanced Data Access and File Management
The
TS mini acts as a user-friendly management console that consolidates
data from various sources. With six USB and two eSATA ports—the highest
number of I/O interfaces on a home server—the TS mini lets home users
directly back up, synchronize, and manage their files across various
USB and eSATA devices, as well as the internal hard drive.
Improved Home Security with Easy Surveillance Features
By connecting IP cameras to the TS mini, users can easily set up a home
surveillance system. With its online connectivity, the TS mini lets
users view live or recorded clips of home surveillance footage while
they are away—to ensure their families are safe.
Better Energy-saving Features
In line with
global energy-saving initiatives, the TS mini was developed to use
minimal power—consuming 24.5W of power when in idle mode and 27.9W when
in operation. Such energy-saving capabilities make the TS mini a good
choice for 24-by-7, non-stop data center operations.
