StableBit DrivePool BETA Build 1588 M2
Announced back in February StableBit DrivePool for Windows Home Server 2011 is now in open beta.
StableBit DrivePool is an add-in replacement for Drive Extender, which as we know was removed in WHS 2011, and provides the following features:
- Combine all your hard drives into one big storage pool (except the system drive with the OS).
- Add and remove drives from the pool at any time without re-partitioning or manually moving folders.
- Create duplicated folders on the storage drive pool that are protected against single drive failure. If a drive fails on which a duplicated file was stored, the contents of that file will remain readable even without the drive.
- All your data is stored in standard NTFS files. You can always access your files even if the Windows Home Server completely crashes or this add-in can’t be used.
WARNING: This early BETA has the potential for bugs. Because of the nature of this add-in there is potential for data loss. Only serious testers should consider downloading and installing this current BETA build.
– Your data integrity can be compromised with this test build. Use at your own risk, and only with non-essential data!. –
If after this warning you are still going to beta test StableBit DrivePool, then you will need to prepare your system to collect crash data in case of a system crash, and you can download the add-in for WHS2011 from here.
Thanks to WeGotServed for the heads up.
