The Windows Server Solutions SDK/API reference should help:

Monday, September 26, 2011 5:52 PMFrom what reading I have done, it seems that Windows Home Server 2011 can only be programmed in Visual C#, can I create an add-in using Visual Basic 2010 Express?

As Ken notes, it is possible but there aren't any VB templates available. (at least that I know of)
However, if you look at class level; there are VB definitions available, for example:

You could take a default c# addin template and translate that into VB; and maybe even share your experiences here with others.
Good luck!
