HP is releasing its second firmware update for MediaSmart Server Series. The latest two of the series; ex487 (1.5TB) and ex485 (750GB) were released last year and gained much praise from all walks of life. Though this is going to be the second firmware update of this year for the series; it will be the first update for these two servers. This is going to be one big update, adding a lot more features than before.

Important to note is that this update is meant only for ex487 (1.5TB) and ex485 (750GB), as the previous models “simply lacked the horsepower and storage capabilities to handle these new tasks”, according to HP. It is going to be out for FREE downloading for everyone by the end of April.
