Server Solution, But How Secure?

Server Solution, But How Secure?
It's a super product for small businesses or those based in the home - Microsoft's Windows Home Server, which gives users a great cost-effective way to store important data. But is it too good to be true? I went cruising the web for some answers, and I came across Victor Garza's impressions, which point also to a pretty large vulnerability from the get-go. As Garza points out, Microsoft is requiring users to have an existing firewall. So it begs the question: is this a solution you can use and live with? I suspect there will be users who think the risks are small enough to take the chance, given that it gets a whole new segment of small businesses into an effective data storage solution.

Thoughts?
