HP MediaSmart EX470 and EX480 getting 3.0 software upgrade option this week

The wild world of rapid-fire phone software updates has spoiled us all, but HP’s bringing just a smidgen of that to the world of home servers. This week owners of the last-gen EX470 and EX480 series MediaSmart Servers will be able to nab a DVD that updates their servers to the new 3.0 software currently available on the EX490 and EX495 models, including better Mac support and automatic media transcoding. Unfortunately, this update isn’t free: you’ll have to pay $25 for the privilege. EX470 / 475 owners are also encouraged to bump their unit up to 1GB of RAM if they haven’t already. We aren’t thrilled at the fee, but there is something a bit more reassuring in this process than Motorola’s “hope and pray” OTA update model.
