Re: SBS Premium R2 and Intel Quad core processor

I have a new server with a quad core Xeon processor.
Is there any way I can take advantage of the quad-core processor in SBS
Premium R2?

You don't have to change anything, the OS will use all cores. If you had
2 Quad Core CPU's you would automatically take advantage of all 8 cores.
