Also try installing if from the desktop and as previously stated, if you copied it from somewhere else as opposed to downloading it directly on the WHS, you have to unblock it. -- consciouspnm TranquilPC - Duet - Linn Kinos - Linn 5Ch Amp - Linn Speakers TranquilPC - SB3 - Bose Companion 3

Doh! Automagically blocked. I'd seen this before but I must have filed that nugget of information alphamystically. It was a piece of cake after unblocking the exe. Odd thing was that I hadn't taken the step to unblock SqueezeCenter-7.1-20612.exe when it just decided to run when making what I

I also have no issues with WHS, all my flac files live on the Music share and they were all copied there from my old QNAP NAS device via a Vista PC with no problems. That's 250Gb in one go. Where did you get WHS from, is it a preinstalled box? -- consciouspnm Duet/SB3 - Linn Kinos - Linn

I built my own WHS box with lots of disk space and very low power requirements. It ran SlimServer and now SqueezeCenter without a hitch. I've got 400GB of music on there (mostly flac) that I moved over from my primary workstation. -- byKnight Really, it was like that when I got here.

I think that while using a small system drive is appropriate for many server systems, WHS thinks different. The general recommendation for WHS is to use the largest drive as the system drive. This is because WHS partitions off a system drive and then uses the physical drive as a 'landing zone'.

I'm struggling with this. I have it installed and running on WHS but what folder can you point it at? Files backed up from PCs are not accessible (as far as I can see) and shared folders have some form of size quota on them that I haven't found a way of removing. Thanks -- lyteroptes

yes, that was my plan too. I can't find any documentation that says there is a limit but each time I try to copy a folder of sub-folder I get a message about insufficient space - the limit appears to about 60 Gbytes. Each shared folder will get backed up so perhap it's calculated some limit? I

I haven't come across a problem with large shared folders, currently have about 240G of FLAC files. I use MediamOnkey to transfer ripped files over to the server. I did find that ripping to a local drive, re-tagging with mp3tag and then suing MM to transfer to the correct folder was the best way.

This is the response I got on the WHS forum. The error message was about insufficient disk space not resources BTW. - File copies are limited by the size of your system drive. If your system drive is 80 GB, for example, it will be reported as
