Solution:

Check your Virtual Disk Bus. And change it to SATA._ /natro/VDISKBUS.png            

I finally installed Windows Server 2012 R2 successfully. But  Virtual NIC was not detected.

Solution:

Check your Virtual Network Interface Device model. It should be rtl8139. Virtio did not work for me.
