Sony has a couple of new home media servers available, with the HS1 carrying 1TB of storage space while the HS1S has 1.5TB. Both were specially constructed to share content automatically with devices such as the PS3 and PCs with Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) compatible software, where content will be streamed over a Gigabit Ethernet link. Supported audio and video formats include AAC, ATRAC, MP3, WMA, H.264 (AVCHD) and MPEG-2 (up to HD resolutions), while shutterbugs can always load up the servers via Memory Stick or SD card readers as well as from any one of three USB ports. The HS1 range will hit Japan first this May 17th, with the HS1 and HS1S retailing for $570 and $760, respectively.
