The HP EX470 MediaSmart Server provides a central location to keep all your files for easy access. The EX470 lets you centralize and share your files and media across your home network. Remotely access files on your server and run applications on your home PCs from any internet-connected computer. Stream photos, music and videos to PCs on your network or to your TV or stereo system. You can even automatically copy iTunes music libraries from family members' PCs to the server for streaming.
Share your life with friends and family via HP Photo Webshare
Sharing photos via the web used to be a time-intensive and sometimes scary endeavor.

Easliy set up a personal web address that visitors can use to see photos on your webshare. Set up automatic emails to notify friends and family to share different photo albums. Visitors can upload their own photos for sharing and download full resolution photos, or be linked to Snapfish for photo printing.
Automatically backup and protect your digital memories
As you accumulate increasing amounts of digital content, keeping everything protected becomes a time-consuming task. The HP MediaSmart Server takes the worry out of data protection by automatically backing up all of your important media and other files. Gain peace of mind through easy backup of household PCs and notebooks running Windows XP and later operating systems.
