I've just noticed there is a new build and on installing it in the lab, I'm sure some of these options are different:

Please advise what HA Processor Driver & loopback connection accelerator (Windows 2012 only) are? The loopback one is definately new and we're running on Windows 2012.

Cheers, Rob.

The loopback connection to the target usually not allows to get the great performance (that was Windows limitation), so Microsoft improved that by allowing software SAN vendors to develop their own loopback accelerator that should provide users who are connection to the shared storage locally brilliant write and read rates. Our team worked hardly to create it, and now all our users can be sure that StarWind gives perfect numbers on all the benchmark tests.
