Best upgrade path WHS v1

-

my whs v1 getting long in tooth. host on 3.2ghz p4 32-bit repurposed used company pc, 9 years old. have purchased replacement hardware , ready install whs v2 (2011) when read articles on wegotserved using windows 8. confuse issue more there windows server essentials 2012. have question may me decide:

  1. will wse2012 included in technet subscription?
  2. will able upgrade beta full version?
  3. can merely copy files whs v1 onto wse2012 shares?
  4. will clients need have window 8 installed?
  5. will there update on technet upgrade windows 7 8?
  6. is wse2012 best solution home system? (i admin 14 years ago.)

whs v1 is oem, , microsoft never provided support.  besides, security updates continue through july 2015.  connector installs fine on win 8.  backs win 8 , not limited 2 tb backups whs 2011 is.  can add drives storage pool.  unlike windows 2012 essentials, removal of drive storage pool easy. 
 
sure built on server 2003r2, team built whs v1 around server 2003 did heck of better job whs 2011 team did on server 2008.
 
whs v1 on third set of hardware me.  each time upgraded hardware, considered whs 2011 , window 2012 essentials, each time whs v1 won out.
 
and best of all, paid for!
 
by time security updates run out in 2015, on non ms home server solution.
