Hi Gui,
Thus far I got some mixed signals reading about Server 2012 vs. 2016. Audiophil the maker says that for now 2012 is still best and some (not all) users say 2016 outperforms 2012. Downside of using 2016 is that I'd need to run it in "full" GUI mode as Roon Server doesn't run in the "minimal" Core mode. In 2012 there's the minimal server mode (in between GUI and Core) which Microsoft removed from 2016 that does allow Roon Server to run.
Anyway, I'll test 2016 at some point. Easy enough!
