HP MediaSmart EX495 Server Review
The good: The HP MediaSmart Server EX495 offers fast performance, innovative digital content management, and an excellent storage and backup solution for both PCs and Macs. Its storage capacity is easily expandable and its remote over-the-Internet access is comprehensive. The server is also quiet and aesthetically pleasing.
The bad: The HP MediaSmart Server EX495 has no RAID, IP camera, or printer support. It doesn't accept hard drives with data already on it. The server can't do backup or recovery for multiple PCs at a time and it takes a long time to set up. The server's on/off switch is too sensitive and can easily be pressed by accident.
The bottom line: For a reasonable price, the HP MediaSmart Server EX495 is a great network storage, content managing, and backup device for home and small business environments. It offers stellar performance, a great backup solution, and remote access options that are easy to use.
