Hello!
I'm planning to build a small little NAS running Windows Server 2016 and trying to use the Hyper-V hypervisor. Planning to run ReFS and Storage Spaces for storage and was considering running maybe one Windows VM in addition to 1-2 linux VMs.
And I'm currently down to either D-1541 or D-1557 CPU's.
D-1541 is 8 core 16 thread 2.1 GHz (2.7 GHz turbo) and the D-1557 is a 12 core 24 thread 1.5 GHz (2.1 GHz Turbo) CPU.
So I'm wondering how much of this turbo performance I will actually be able to utilize? And will the 1.5 GHz actually be so low that it's not worth the extra cores since my tasks will be slower? Will my system be any use at 1.5 GHz or should I go with the high clock speed D-1541?
