Hyper V 2012 on SD card (Dell R430) need how-to
-
In theory that is what the special SD and USB slots on some Dell and HP servers are supposed to do - they present the device over SATA or something so that Windows things that it is a normal disk. Only certain ports normally do it.

That is only on newer units.
Devices I purchased in 2011 do not have that feature. -

Dell T410 and Dell T610 I think are the models. Purchased November 2011.
I have a Dell 1U rack mount at another client purchased in umm late 2013 maybe? that would not do it either. That might be me missing a setting but I did try 3 times to get it going. After that I needed it up to recover from a failure.

I made it !!
Following this Tutorial
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee731893(WS.10).aspx
After this tutorial I get a blue screen but with the DVD and reparing the boot It works now.
There is something strange anyway, the keyboard reaction is very slow.

@iroal you should post a full how to with all steps and notes as its own thread, we will reference it often.

The slow respond probably due to drivers. I had slow network connection when remote in. After a Chipset driver update I am good to go.
But since you installed in on a removable drive the cause might be different -
Deploy Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 on a UFD that is an internal component of the computer, such as an internal hard drive, that will be identified as non-removable by the STORAGE_DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR storage structure.
@iroal does your server see this device as non-removable? or were you able to bypass/ignore this?

Running on a 32 GB stick? why the two partitions?

On a 32GB SD in Raid 1, It's install internally in the Server.
One partition have the Windows System the other was create it to mount it using a Vhd.

How do you get a RAID 1 over USB or SD Cards?

@iroal You need to publish step-by-step how you managed to pull this off. Also list your Server model/spec as well for comparison. This will benefit many people.

It's an option into the Bios.

Now like @LAH3385 I'd like to know what server you're using.
