1:1 (one-to-one), bit-for-bit archiving
Ease of use doesn't mean that quality is sacrified. Any music CD that's archived can be stored bit-for-bit, providing lossless playback, as if you had the physical disc itself! For music, the vController can even archive a second copy in a mobile format to be stored on your iPod or other portable music player. No conventional system has these features! |

With a single vController, you can easily replace mountains of CD music discs when upgraded as a multiroom audio server w. an optical DVD/CD drive, RoomDisc, and whole house audio/vAutomation™ software! The vController provides you with a great set of features, such as 1-step 'Drop-n-rip', future upgradability, vAutomation support, and more! |

SSD hard drives provide longevity
All moving parts eventually fail - which is the why choosing the vController makes sense compared to conventional home server solutions. In the event of a failed drive, a replacement can be installed in mere minutes without the use of any special tools, dismounting the server from the rack, etc. vController makes it quick & easy! |

vWHS software - unique only to VidaBox
The RackServer comes with our modified version of Windows Home Server. Dubbed vWHS, this OS follows our hardware's locked down design, where no software - even if loaded manually by disc, USB drive, or internet download, can be installed unless a series of very specific commands are entered correctly. In concert with field servicable hardware, this sets a new standard for reliability. Click here to learn more about vWHS software. |
