controller, rather than the one integrated into
the motherboard, the installation procedure
may not detect your hard drive.
The Where do you want to install Windows?
page will not list hard drives.
Install a third-party driver to allow the
installation program access to your hard drive
to continue the installation.

Advantage of deploying server core servers:
Hardware resource conservation Hardware resource conservation Hardware resource conservation Hardware resource conservation
- Use system hardware to run essential services.
Reduced disk space Reduced disk space Reduced disk space Reduced disk space
- Requires less disk space and less swap space,
Reduced Reduced Reduced Reduced patch frequency patch frequency patch frequency patch frequency
- reduces the number of updates and therefore
fewer server restarts and less downtime.
Reduced attack surface Reduced attack surface Reduced attack surface Reduced attack surface
- Fewer entrances there are for attackers to
exploit as lesser software is installed

A setting that removes some of the most
hardware-intensive elements from the GUI.
Middle ground between Server Core and full

Setup program creates a new Windows folder
in which to install the new version of Windows
Server 2012.
The program then migrates applications, files,
and settings from the old OS to the new.
To minimize risks involved in this complex
procedure, administrators must perform
backups and be able to troubleshoot problems
that may arise.
