Installed WHS 11 on a HP Microserver (8gb RAM, 3 x 2TB Drives). Had to install DVD drive, HD's and RAM on Microserver before install. WHS11 install took about an hour total. It was painless and easy. The new client connector software installs fast and easy also. Configuration is a breeze. Remote access requires a web address so I just went with Microsoft's "yourname.homeserver.com" url.
Had an existing Ver 1 HP EX 470 so I just copied pasted the data over. I didn't transfer the PC backups from the old server. Couldn't tell you how to.
I have a Windows Phone 7 and it works like a charm via the web based client. Can search and download files with ease. Xbox 360 works perfectly also.
Drive Extender issue wasn't big for me. I have about 2 TB's worth of data and have the other two 2 TB drives back it up. If I double my data I can add a forth and final drive and have one of the other two backup drives back it up.
If you have torrent and ripped DVD's in the tens of TB range WHS11 is probably not for you.
WHS11 only runs on 64 bit CPU's and it runs fast on my dual core 1.3 GHZ AMD system. HD video requires a much faster CPU such as a i5, i7 or some other quad core CPU. I don't use my WHS11 for video but if you do want to stream HD you have to get a faster power hungry CPU.
I am glad I did the upgrade from ver 1 WHS.
