  • Windows 10 Pro.

Choosing Windows Server 2025, Windows Server 2022 or Windows 10 Pro when deploying a Bare Metal server

The install is fully automatic and unattended, and the server is ready in about 10 minutes. On servers with two disks you can choose a single disk or RAID 1, a mirror across the two NVMe drives. Windows boots from the mirror, so either disk can fail and the server keeps running.

Remote Desktop (RDP) is enabled out of the box, with the username and password you choose at install.

Windows is available on Bare Metal models with NVMe drives. It is installed without activation: activate it with your own license key or your KMS server.
