Scalability Improvements
Storage Spaces
Storage Spaces delivers Software Dened Storage
(SDS). Easily group multiple hard drives into a storage
pool and protect data in the pool, without the need to
understand RAID. Storage Spaces enables
cost-eective, highly available, scalable, and exible
storage solutions for business-critical deployments.
Data Deduplication
Controls data growth by removing duplicate data.
Allows the server to eciently store, transfer and
backup less data.
Integrated Cloud Services
Integration with Oce 365
Oce 365
Microsoft
Azure
Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials provides
the option to integrate with Oce 365 or a
third-party Hosted Exchange provider.
Administrators need only create a user's account
once — an associated mailbox can be automatically
created at the same time. The Essentials server syncs
passwords with Oce 365, helping end users enjoy a
seamless sign-on experience whether they are
accessing local or cloud-based resources.
Integration with Microsoft Azure Backup
Integration with Microsoft Azure Backup
complements your local server backups with a
cloud-based service that stores your business-critical
data in a highly secure, osite datacenter.

Critical Data Protection
File History
File History periodically (every hour by default) scans
the le system for changes and creates a copy on the
server. It simplies the recovery of les, accidently
deleted or overwritten, without the need for an
administrator's assistance.
Client Computer Backups
Congured to run daily on each PC that's connected
to the Essentials environment, client computer
backup stores your backup data centrally on the
server. This type of automatic protection enables you
to restore individual les and folders, or an entire PC,
as you would do when replacing a faulty hard drive
or upgrading from an older hard disk drive.
Server Backup
You can add a hard disk drive to the server, either
internally or externally, and designate it as a backup
destination as opposed to server storage. Windows
Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials will then use this
drive to back up all the data stored on the server,
including both the operating system les and your
business data.
NTFS Online Scan and Repair (CHKDSK)
CHKDSK in Windows Storage Server 2012 R2
Essentials introduces a new approach that prioritizes
volume availability and allows for the detection of
corruption while the volume remains online with
data available.
Robust Windows Server Security
Flexible anti-virus support and complete disk
protection with BitLocker Drive Encryption for robust
data protection.

authenticated users with access to key features of the
server, including shared les and media, add-ins, and
Remote Web Access. The Launchpad also provides
real-time information and notications about the
health of the computer.
Printer Server Support
Print Services enables you to share printers on a
network, as well as to centralize print server and
network printer management tasks. It also enables
you to migrate print servers and deploy printer
connections using a Group Policy
Health Monitoring
Health status noties you of issues or problems
related to computer backups, server storage, low disk
space, and more. Health reports can be automatically
generated on a scheduled basis and emailed directly
to local administrators or external partners.
No Windows Server CALs Required
No Windows Server Client Access Licenses (CALs)
required benets users the ability to access the
services of the server without a permit. With this,
business users will not have to go through the

improve performance of networked applications,
and reduce trac on your wide-area network (WAN).
SMB Multi-channel
