For Karen, Jamie and Elliot.
Terry Walsh is the Owner and Editor of We Got Served ( http://www.wegotserved.com ), which he established in 2007 to share his own experiences with emerging Home Server platforms.
Since then, the site has grown to cover a wide range of digital home, consumer electronics, and small business product categories but retains at its core the mission to help users make the most of technology.
Terry graduated from the University of Durham in 1995 with a Bachelor of Arts in English Language and Literature. Hes worked in a variety of senior retail marketing, innovation consultancy and product management roles for a variety of blue-chip brands including Citibank, RBS, DSGi, John Lewis, Tesco, Barclays, SK Telecom and Unilever amongst others, but has much more fun writing about technology in his spare time. Prior to starting WGS, Terry cut his teeth online in 1993 building and operating operating a number of successful alternative music websites and communities for UK artists.
Born and raised in Liverpool, England and now living in Silverstone with his wife and two sons, Terry has been awarded Microsofts Most Valuable Professional Award each year since 2008 for his work on We Got Served.
This is Terrys third book, following Using OS X Lion Server at Home and Windows Home Server 2011 Step by Step .

We Got Served is a popular technology news and community site which was founded in February 2007. It is written, edited and moderated by a dedicated and knowledgeable team of technology enthusiasts across the world who are focused on bringing you the latest news, reviews, tutorials and support for the products youre using today and tomorrow. We created We Got Served as a place to learn about new technology, help readers make the most of the products and services they use, and most importantly to create a community where readers can learn, discuss and share their experiences and knowledge with others in need of support. However you use the site, I hope you enjoy it.
If youve followed my website, We Got Served, or the home server scene over the last five years youll know that Microsoft have spent a lot of time, effort (and probably not enough money) bringing products like Windows Home Server to market.
Windows Home Server, much loved by geeks, tech enthusiasts and other neer do wells is a capable solution for the connected home - centralised file sharing, media streaming, first class computer backup and easy remote access to boot. But the product has failed to win mass adoption - the kind of adoption it deserved.
Why? Well, theres the expense of buying dedicated hardware, perceived complexity of hooking it all up to your network, and - cripes - someone in Marketing called it a Server . Windows Home Server, and its successor Windows Home Server 2011 were brave and partially successful attempts to both simplify and enhance management of the digital home. But the future is here already.
Im going to make a bold, and possibly ill-advised prediction. I dont think there will be a Windows Home Server 2012, 2013 or 2014. In fact, even if there is, its not really required. Because we have Windows 8 - Microsofts latest version (or in their words, re-imagination ) of the Windows client operating system.
Yes, a client. Not a server.
No doubt youll have heard of it, and many of you may have already tried it out. Millions of words have already been written about Windows 8 and tablets, Windows 8 and smartphones, Windows 8 and touchscreens. Im not going to talk about any of that. Journalists, commentators and industry pundits are already arguing about the merits of Microsofts new Metro user experience. Thats not the focus of this book, either.
In this book, Building a Windows 8 Home Server , well dig into the lesser-known corners of the new Windows 8 operating system to uncover a wonderful secret. That the future of Microsofts home server push is alive and well and about to land on millions of desktops and devices later this year.
Dont get hung up on the name. You dont need Microsofts Marketing department to come up with a product branded Windows 8 Home Server to build a Windows 8 home server. You just need this book, a copy of the Windows 8 operating system, a few recommended apps and some time. Oh and if, like me, you see the launch of Windows 8 as the chance to buy some new hardware, thats okay too - though not strictly necessary! Well walk through the basics, and stretch into a few more advanced ninja moves - but its always step by step throughout.
