Hi there,

I was thinking about purchasing a HP StorageWorks X510 Data Vault to use as a general purpose media server. I noticed that the system uses Microsoft Windows Home Server, would it be possible to upgrade to Windows Server 2008? Eventually, I would like to run a few virtual machines on the server.
