Hardware needed for Windows 2012 virtualization
Posted: 3. Mar 2014, 22:04
Hallo,
My current desktop machine doesn't support hardware virtualization, so I need to get another. I will go with laptop, but I'm not on very big budget. My question is:
Is it possible to run 2 Windows 2012 guest machines (one with Exchange Server 2010) on this hardware:
It's Toshiba M50D-A-10W laptop with
AMD Cabini A4-5000 quad core, 1.5GHz
4+4GB Ram @ 1333MHz
500GB hard disk
I assume that other components are not so important, so I will not list them. Host OS would be Windows 7.
In school for MCSA we had classes about Windows 2012, domains and Exchange server, so this is very important when buying laptop.
Would this be enough? Could I go bit down with components (cheaper laptop), or I must get better one?
Thank you very much.
