We have a SQL server running on a System x3550 M4 with 32 GB Memory. While we started the procurement process to replace it, it may take up to two years to get the funding and approvals. It is running SQL Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008. For security reasons, I'd like to upgrade the OS and SQL versions.



Despite searching, I've not been able to find out if the newer Microsoft OS's are supported on this hardware. Does anyone know?
