Acer have released their easyStore Home Server in the US which, say Acer, offers a simple way to network home computers, centralize, share and protect digital data as well as access it remotely from anywhere in the world.

The Acer easyStore Home Server works with DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) 1.5 Certified Home Server (DMS) and digital media player (DMP) to enable music playback as well as photo and video viewing on a TV, comes with a 60-day free trial of McAfee Internet Security Suite 2008 and offers the following key features:

• Intel Atom Processor 230
• Microsoft Windows Home Server
• 2GB DDR2 Memory
• 1TB Hard Drive
• Three Empty Hot Swappable Hard Drive Bays
• Five USB 2.0 Ports
• One eSATA Port
• 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
• 200 Watt Power Supply
• RJ-45 LAN Port

“The trend of multiple computer devices per household continues to grow, particularly with regard to mobility. A significant pain point for consumers is how to consolidate and protect their digital data that’s spread among multiple devices,” said Sumit Agnihotry, Vice President of Product Marketing for Acer America. “Aspire easyStore is the ideal solution for networking home PCs and providing round the clock data protection. Offering remote access to digital data at home from anywhere in the world and automatic daily back-ups, it’s the perfect companion to netbooks and notebooks. It’s an extremely practical and affordable way to simplify and manage one’s personal digital life.”

The Acer easyStore Home Server has just been made available in the US for just shy of a pretty reasonable $400.
