Windows Server 2008 R2 HPC is the same NT 6.1 version as 64 bit windows 7 with different settings enabled or disabled. Capability for multiple processors is reserved for the server editions. This is a deliberate limitation of the NT kernel by Microsoft. Of the common Microsoft operating systems most will only run one processor and a few will be able to run at most two processors. I have no experience with Linux so I tend to rely on windows editions. Ubunto and Scientific Linux a variant of Red Hat seem most adequate. How various distributions of it actually do is the main question. Shopping around I'm exceedingly wary of the authenticity of what is being sold or by who or what I get for anywhere from around a hundred dollars to many thousands.įrom what I have determined the Linux kernel is capable of juggling multiple processors in symmetric mode. So how much is this going to cost me ? I'm a Kmart sort of customer, Microsoft's Neiman Marcus pricing, costing many times what I paid for the hardware, applies to business and institutional organizations with multitudes of simultaneous users. According my investigation of product activation and licensing, I need only obtain a product key enabling - 2 - licenses ( 1 per 2 processors ).

Installation of Microsoft products can be managed with a trial edition download subject to eventual validation. Solaris is perhaps another option, but the file system a particular operating system uses will commit the data and applications to that platform and will not be accessible to another OS that uses a different file system.

I understand it looks and acts much as Windows 7, and is amenable to common desktop PC software. In any case those are what the chassis maker Supermicro recommends. Windows Server 2008 R2, HPC, Enterprise or Datacenter editions are among the few Operating Systems that handle multiple processors. This is to be a stand alone workstation and not a network server. I need a 64 bit Operating System to run a motherboard with 4 Xeon /4 core processors with 48 GB Ram, which I purchased second hand. Having bought the hardware first, the looming question now is what OS do I run it with.
