OpenFiler running under a Hyper-V and Windows Server 2008 R2 Host

The Big WHS: 8 File-Serving OS’s Virtualized in one 4U Server

Now that the Big WHS is stable, and I have a bit more storage capacity than I need, I decided that Windows Home Server running virtualized in a Hyper-V virtual machine is good, but I wanted to test out some of the free WHS alternatives. A quck listing of the NAS operating systems installed on the current box shows is:

  1. Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 hosting, using Hyper-V:
  2. Windows Home Server (My WHS VM)
  3. FreeNAS
  4. OpenFiler
  5. unRaid
  6. CentOS
  7. EON
  8. Ubuntu
Hyper-V, WHS, Windows Server 2008 R2, CentOS, unRaid, Openfiler, Ubuntu, FreeNAS, EON on one machine

A complete NAS: Hyper-V, WHS, Windows Server 2008 R2, CentOS, unRaid, Openfiler, Ubuntu, FreeNAS, EON all on one machine
