S1Digital Serves Up New ProLine Series of High-End Media Centers

The Media Server Edition raises the bar for Media Centers by including up to 3 terabytes of storage in six hot swap drive bays, S1 says. Managed by a dedicated 3ware RAID controller, the Media Server can effortlessly record multiple HDTV streams while simultaneously streaming content throughout the home (via Media Center Extenders) and providing full data protection. The 3U rack mount chassis fits into standard 20-inch depth A/V racks for convenience. Other features include HD DVD playback, 1080p HDMI video output and dual HDTV and SDTV tuners enabling recording of up to four TV channels at the same time. The Media Server Edition is powered by the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processors, includes Intel Viiv technology and runs on Microsoft Vista Ultimate.
