So, I understand the reason for Core when the host is just running the Hyper-V role. I understand the reduced attack surface, less patching (which may lead to less reboots), and lower RAM utilization.
From what I understand, enabling the Hyper-V role in Server 2012 virtualizes the OS and is essentially the same as running it on top of Hyper-V 2012 Server. Also, Hyper-V doesn't passthru SMART data.
