Win8.1 is not a server operating system. I would suggest Server 2012 R2 for your server OS. If you want to use it as a PC go ahead, however, you do not get the same networking features as you would with Windows Server.

Yes, yes it does. I am using 3 of these bad boys in my nas4free server right now. All 12 drives show up perfectly and i get decent speeds with samba2. Drivers are included in freenas and nas4free latest builds. I truly recommend this card, and it is an excellent way to add 4 simple sata ports to your system.

Zachary, The Certified Servers team appreciates your question. The Poweredge 2950 is able to have Windows 2012 installed on it.

I am running 64bit ubuntu server without any problem, I do not run win8, I think it should be fine.

I've been using it with Windows 7 64bit (Samsung RV-515 & Lenove X120e) systems and it has worked A-OK.

I was able to access and load files from my eMachines W3502 Tower. Therefore, it appears to perform as backward compatible.

Server 2012 /2012R@ drivers are listed at http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr600-download.htm I believe I used this on a Server 2012 Storage Server build with no issues. It does NOT work well with some UEFI BIOSes, so that may be an issue for you. The first board I used was a UEFI and I could not select this card as a boot device. Hope this helps, and good luck.

Hi Calvin, It comes with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Foundation. Thanks, PCrush

It does for me but it really depends on the app you want to print from and the server you are connecting to. Server 2008R2 worked fine.

No, Windows Server 2012 will do all upon start, just follow the startup process and you don't have to do anything. Anyway, I have also put the card in machine with Server 2012 R2 Essentials, power on PC and just followed on screen process, didn't have to do anything until password request to log in to server and my HDD appeared and everything working as it should.

Yes. It works well with 12.04 and newer. It also works well with the NAS4Free variant of FreeBSD.

I have not...I ran it with Server 2008 R2 until I switched to a LSI 9212-4i4e which works great with Server 2012 R2 and has a lot more throughput. It is an HBA just like the Highpoint but is PCI Express x8 and supports RAID 0/1/1E/10. Good luck.

If you set the server 2012(r1 or r2) up as a domain controller then any connecting clients need to be professional version. Home versions will only work in a workgroup. You also need to buy CALS(client access licenses) for any PCs connecting to the server to be legal.

Yes it works, I have a windows 7 and a windows 8 machine and I can manage it from both.

Yes, it does. I have it running in an HP DL320 1U server in a horizontal, half-height slot.
