Time to install Microsoft's Home Server Vail (beta) As from the MS website you can download a beta version, it's always fun to try this out. But please keep in mind this is not 100% stable yet!

Put in the DVD and away we are for a new system in my network at home.

And we are done

Installing the software took a bit longer compared to the time to build the server.

The server is very quiet even on playing a DVD from the drive, but this is more due to what dvd-reader/burner you buy. It's a real treat to my ears and I am very into the low noise in my living room.

In the big world of Cases, Vidabox earns a special place. As they made cases by listing to feedback from users, and not go for the over the top designs. A very good simple product. Servers are mostly kept away from sight, I will keep this one in sight though as it matches the style of my LCD and sound system.

Overall I am very pleased with this case and will be using it for Home server and HD matrial streaming to my LCD tv. So storing my movies and music plus a back up for my main systems. Combined WHS HTPC as we speak.

The Vidabox CubeCase Mini-ITX PC Chassis will go on sale for $99 today, which is pretty good value for money, but wait... there's more. Madshrimps readers will get a $5 off by using coupon code "CubeCase-[M]" (without quotes) at time of check out. This means our readers can buy this case for $94! That's quite a steal if you ask me.

We like to thank Steven from Vidabox for making this review possible, until next time!
