In this episode we receive parts for our new i5 SSD, based server for our Hyper-V lab. So we quite literally 'build' the server and then 'build' the server if that makes sense. We are now uoto 3 servers with 56GB of memory in total and 768GB of SSD space, this could well be the start of something really quite amazing, demo lab wise that is. Once assembled we then install Windows 2008 R2, add the Hyper-V role and then put it under control of Systems Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012 before running a quick V2V from another node to ensure things are working well. WARNING: This episode contains a sharp knife.
