Setting shared folder permissions to read-only, and to not use application that could directly edit files store on your WHS? So is it still safe to say this product is a Home Server? Because the "workarounds" given in the KB kind of say otherwise.

Because if it's strongly suggested to not do anything of the above, it's not really a storage server.

I was planning on installing a second hard drive in my WHS, but I'm thinking of holding off now. Since I do use applications to directly alter files stored on my home server.

Will this June release include "Power Pack 1" or are you releasing a patch solely for KB 946676?

So are you now going to release Power Pack 1 ahead of the hotfix? The june fix date for this hotifx is only provisional and could take longer, it seems daft to make people wait that long to get all the additional functionality of PP1 in the mean time.

Todd Headrick has asked if you should do this on the Home Server forums;

The overwhelming opinion so far has been "Yes, release the powerpack now"

So is this going to happen now please???
