Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials Now Available on TechNet and MSDN

Hot on the heels of Windows Home Server 2011 being able to download for subscribers of TechNet and MSDN, Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials (code name Aurora) is also available.

There are two downloads:

The Server Install disc which is 4070 MB

The Client Restore disc which is 467 MB

Those of you who don’t have access to either TechNet or MSDN can download a fully functional evaluation copy.

The evaluation copy will be valid for up to 180 days, and you fully activate it to a full version with a product key anytime within the evaluation period.
