Has anyone seen Win8's new 'storage spaces' feature?

I've been pondering using unraid for a while now but my plan is to have a server running 24/7 and an htpc that I power on demand that streams from the server.
I'm hoping to do it with ivy bridge cpu's for ultra low power (17w) in both machines and 802.11ac gig wifi. I know unraid supports running things like couchpotato/sickbeard etc but I would choose a windows environment for flexibility/easiness if i could which is why I think Win8 plus this new feature would be a perfect fit!
It sounds like they are really covering all aspects and making it quite easy to manage. Check it out
