I'll be getting my first real server which I want to do multiple things on. I use Windows on all my pc's, but I was thinking of using a hypervisor so i could take advantage of containers/docker etc.
Is there any advantage of running a type 1 hypervisor (like Proxmox or Hyper-V core) and then WSE 2012 R2 as a guest OS. DrivePool will run under WSE 2012 and manage all storage. I read a number of other threads on this and it seems drives can be passed thru with no performance hit and even Scanner can work, correct?
I was thinking of running the various services I'd need (like media server, download, web server) as Docker containers under Linux. They'd be stored on separate disk of course, and then access the media via \\shares from DrivePool.
Is there any advantage to doing this vs - installing WSE 3012 as main OS then using its Hyper-V to host Linux VMs - is the performance same in both cases?
