As far as I understand there is no difference in content between 2008 standard and premium. &nbsp;The premium version includes a license to use the operating system on an additional machine plus a copy of SQL Server.<br />
<br />
So your download should be fine except it will contain a copy of the SQL Server installer, that you won't be licensed to use.

I have no idea where my SBS 2008 Standard edition disk went and I went online to find a download, but i can only find a trial to SBS premium trial. I am downloading this right now and i am hoping it will work but so far i have been waiting for 3 hours for it to download and i still have an hour left for it to finish. <br />
<br />
I need a contingency plan in the event that premium won't allow me to recover my SBS 2008 Standard edition from a backup.<br />
<br />
Any ideas on where i can get a trial of SBS 2008 standard??<br />
<br />
Thanks!
