This just learned from the connect website. Microsoft has nuetered Vail by limiting it to a single physical processor. This might not effect MSS/OEMs much as they will only have a single proc. But those folks who like to say repurpose an old HP Proliant servers or like to use say Supermicro multi proc systems. From what I read it will not recognize all of the processors. You can have multiple cores though. So my I7-940 (The Beast) build is fine but not my DL-380 server... |

Thats a bummer and I certainly hope this is not the case when they release it. My ProLiant runs with 2 Duel Core Processors and I do very much enjoy running it WHS v1 on it due to its performance especially for streaming video online. I will be honest I have not been following Vail as much as I would like to as I have been focused on other things and all my Server Projects lately have been put on the back burner including the custom 30 drive enclosure I am planning on building which I knew would take me some time so I figured I would have it built and running by the end of 2010. Guess we will have to wait and see what they do with Vail in the end. |

You guys would need to run Aurora to use the 2 physical processors. With quad core CPU's so prevalent I don't think this is a huge issue, though it will indeed annoy and frustrate some users. |

I wonder if an old fashioned HAL transplant would work. |
