Hey guys:
Next home storage server question for you guys. Since I'm a college student still, I can get a copy of Windows Server Standard 2008 for free (yay Dreamspark!). If memory serves, WHS is just a trimmed down version of Windows Server.

Basically, my question is: are all the backup and disk management tools that make WHS so nifty also in Windows Server '08, or are they unique to WHS?
Thanks!
 
They're unique to WHS. Windows Server and Windows Home Server are two entirely different products.
 
WHS is based off of Server 2003 but adds many unique features. Rumor has it that the next version of WHS will be based off of Server 2008 but no release date is currently targeted for the next version of WHS.
