You can configure windows to boot into safe mode on reboot:

Re: New Mini-itx Proxmox Build
I'm not sure about USB. This things are fragile. HDD/SSD is better choice for install/boot (for SSD: ext4 as filesystem and add cron job to run discard command).
Please verify the ISO checksum before installing (you can upload iso with filezilla to folder /var/lib/vz/template/iso).

I guess it would be better without RAID controller then and using trim function like is explained here: http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/17248-pveperf-and-ext4
Also installing host on regular HDD would reduce unnecessary writes to the SSD.
will be there support for clipboard (copy/paste)?
And firewall does not like security groups names with minus symbol (for example: "pve-admin" you'll get error: status update error: unable to apply firewall changes).
thanks.
If I understand this correctly: the settings for host zone are inside /etc/pve/firewall/cluster.fw and settings for the vm zone are inside /etc/pve/firewall/{VMID}.fw ?
syslog message:

and this triggers kernel panic (at least in my case).

hi,
i guess iops are a little more complicated - the rate 100-120 iops doesn't tell you much in this case.
Run some test with iometer and you'll see that rate can go above 20k iops.
