Curious, what is the idle power consumption?

Are you just looking to grant users access to a VM or you want to grant them access to Hyper-V and allow them to create VMs? I don't believe there is a simple way to grant access to Hyper-V as an administrator but also limiting them access to your VMs, if you wanted them the ability to create...

Any there any shortcoming in buying a Dell/EMC branded P5600 NVMe ssd besides the inability to update firmware outside of a dell server?

I also received the retail box, but I received a second tracking number for the extra adapter. It hasn't arrived yet though.

Thanks for all the advice guys, I will try to use less vCPU. Initially I struggled a bit to configure this so I was concerned it was some sort of configuration error which it might of been. I reconfigured and tested against bare metal which performed way better so made me think about just...

Yeah I guess I didn't expect saturating 1gbs network would utilize 50% of the cpu. Just using some spare hardware around to test, to size up for a potential homelab server. With 50% utilization I think that the Xeon D-1541 might be under powered a bit. I tested bare metal a few months earlier...
