Yes this server does support Windows 2012 and it does support virtualization.

Yes I have used this computer as a server for a small office. It has more than enough power to run several Hyper V's in one system.

No. Just Windows XP and Windows Server 03. I could not get it to work with vista or above

I've installed it.I used the esxi cuatomized by hp. Think it's not officially supported but works ok. No hardware passthrough unless you change the cpu though. Hope this helps. Pls correct me if i'm wrong.

I have one of these set up with standard drives and am able to run two VMs at the same time easily. I assume that SSDs would make it a bit faster though.

It does not have any virtualization features at all. You can see the spec sheet for this one here: http://ark.intel.com/products/50496/Intel-PRO1000-PT-Quad-Port-Server-Adapter Here is the spec sheet for the I350-T4: http://ark.intel.com/products/59063/Intel-Ethernet-Server-Adapter-I350-T4

ESXi/vSphere compatible SAS-capable HBA, supported by Windows Server 2012 and 2008R2 and it runs in 2 modes, IT (straight through No Raid) and IR (Raid 0,1,1E,10)I've used it for ZFS under FreeNAS and Nas4Free, next project it will be used for Windows Storage Spaces under server2012R2 Don't forget to order the right kind of cables between the cards SFF connectors and your drives.

It works as a backup device under 2008 r2 where I'm using the unit in production mode; I've not yet tested it on a 2012 r2 server.

I am sure It would work with Server 2012. I am using it on a ultrabook running windows 8.1 pro. But I cannot recommend this product as it is already malfunctioning. It has a loose connection and turns off and on with the slightest of movements. It also gets very hot. I will be buying a different within the next couple of weeks.

I have two of these. I run Win7 Pro x64 on one, and Server 2008R2 with a 3rd Gen Core i5 and 16GB RAM on another. No issues whatsoever. All drivers available on Shuttle's website work fine, even card reader. It makes for a wonderful server. I even run another 2008R2 VM using Hyper-V and everything works great. I have nothing negative to say about this guy as a small, quiet, cool server.

Virtualization is ebabled by default. I am successfully running hyper-v machines daily.

I would doubt MS Server 2012 would install as this PC would not meet minimum hardware specifications. The same reason it won't install to a laptop PC.

I installed Windows Server 2012 Standard on a Dell PowerEdge T110 II server and it runs great! I do not know about installing it on a Dell XPS X8700 though. What hardware requirements does your business software specify? I hope that this helps. Please feel free to send another email at mars10@comcast.net if you have any more questions. My name is Marshall.

Yes, I have it installed in one of my PCs running one Windows 7, 8 and Server 2012 R2 without problems.

Yes it should. We are running a 2012 R2 environment with 2 hyper-v 2012 servers for testing. No through put problems. However make sure your switch is configuration supports NIC aggregation if its a smart switch. This setting can be ran and managed right from the 2012 R2 & 2012 server management console. Not sure if HP has a application for NIC aggregate like broadcom and Intel does. But the 2012 windows server series seems to handle and manage it just fine. We are also running the NICs and a single point of aggregation that gives us 4Gbps uplink to the network. It's fast!
