Map a SAN LUN to a WS2012 R2 virtual machine

Hello,

I need some help from someone who has dealt with this before.

I have:
an HP DL380 G6 running the unlimited eval copy of Hyper-V Server 2012 R2.
an HP MSA 2040 SAN enclosure.
a WS2012 R2 Std. x64 virtual machine running on the Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 host.
an HP/LSI SAS 9207-8e host adapter.

I've been asked to configure the WS2012 R2 Std. x64 virtual machine as a file server, but really the data will be on an MSA 2040 SAN enclosure volume, so I need to map an LUN from the MSA 2040 to the WS2012 R2 Std. x64 virtual machine.

Of course I can't actually install the HP/LSI SAS 9207-8e host adapter into the WS2012 R2 Std. x64 virtual machine, but is there an emulation/software solution for this?

If I install the physical HP/LSI SAS 9207-8e host adapter into the physical Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 host, will I be able to add a virtual version of said host adapter to my VM?

I'm searching and reading posts now, but if someone, who knows, has the answer, I would really appreciate a pointer or two.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.
