This was one of the easiest set up processes to run to date with the new Windows 8 Server OS.
Using all native NIC teaming, Microsoft’s built in MPIO for the SAS based DAS storage (Promise VTrak), and some configuration tweaks on the two nodes we had a 100% showing in the Cluster Validation Wizard.
With the validation having run successfully we were able to stand the cluster up with no issues at all.
Awesome job Server and Hyper-V Teams!

Philip --
Was this an Intel Modular Server or other model? We are waiting to see what your results are with the modular server and Windows 2012 Server - thanks!
Joseph,
This was done on our 2 node SR1695GPRX2AC 1U 1P based setup connected to a Promise VTrak E610sD for centralized storage.
We will be running tests on our IMS when we have a bit more time.
Thanks,
Philip
