I am building a WHS computer in the next few days and still can't decide whether to get the new version or stick with the last one. I 100% want drive extender and seeing how they did away with it for 2011 pisses me off. I did read about some 3rd party companies that offer drive extension capabilities but do these really work well? Should I just stick with the last version? My plan, for now, is two 2TB internals and two 2TB external USB drives that backup nightly.
Connected to this will be my main gaming PC, laptop wirelessly, HTPC and a music only computer hooked up to the whole house audio system. I will store my ripped movies, home videos, pictures and music. I want drive extender so everything can be in one location so if I were to run out of space I wouldn't have to worry about putting half the movies on one drive and the other half on another.
Thanks in advance.
