MS Windows Home Server

Sorry if such a system already exists but...

What would be useful is an add in for the WHS console that will inform you of CPU usage, netwrok usage, HDD access etc.

The sort of information that Windows Task Manager andother programs will tell you, but for them to work you need to remotly logon to your WHS system.

A plugin that will show you the resources and their utilisation would be useful.

hmmmm, i'm fairly sure WMI can provide this information. So it shouldnt be too hard.

You don't need an add-in to do this, must H/W monitoring software will save/send its output to other systems on your network.

Personally I use MBM5 and Coolmon v1.0 [both which are now out of development] on my WHS. One of the advantages of using old/lo-spec equipment.

I believe the newer Coolmon v2 can use Speedfan to do the same job, but with the advantage of supporting newer H/W and the disadvantage of being more resource heavy.
Not really a problem for you with your spec's.
