Test Windows 2008 r2 Server restore with Symantec System Revocery 2013

Hello All,

I have a couple servers running 2008 r2 with Symantec System Revoery 2013 installed. I'd like to run a test to see how fast i can completely restore a server using this program.  i was thinking of purchasing a regular 64bit PC (non-server) and see if i can restore it to dissimilar hardware. Is this possible? Do I need to run server 2008 r2 on the test machine also? Can it run Windows 7 or 8 and just override it with the server restore? Hope i described this well enough.

Thanks in advance,

Alex

The restore will also restore the server OS on the test hardware - so you should be able to carry out your tests as you described.
