Sony kicks out WiFi-enabled 1TB Home Share VGF-HS1E media server in Europe

by Darren Murph, posted Oct 2nd 2008 at 11:37AM

We've already seen this circular media server loosed in Japan, but Sony is just now getting around to launching the thing in Europe. The Home Share VGF-HS1E follows the same design scheme as most of Sony's living room-based HTPCs and comes loaded with a pair of 500GB 7,200RPM SATA hard drives, a multicard reader, three USB ports, Ethernet, WiFi and DLNA-compatibility. There's no word on price, availability or any of that good stuff, but we'll be keeping an ear out.

Why is it round? I mean, how am I supposed to stack this on top of my Blu-Ray player? Or fit this into my A/V rack with my audio receiver?

They have a black model with Blu built in... The black compliments home theaters a little better
