Pete,

I would always install the latest version no matter what. Given that servers tend to sit in hosted environments for a long time they get dated quickly enough as it is that you don't want 10 extra years of Windows Lifecycle debt on top of your new server :-)

>Hi all, just picked up a second hand HP Proliant ML330 G6 server and would like some advice as to what version of Windows Server to put on it, it has esxi on it at the moment but I don't have time to mess about with virtual machine setups - any suggestions welcome. BTW it has four sas drives setup in a RAID 5 array
