Nah but good stuff always willing to accept a necro about ZFS.

I’ve been wanting to VMify my Windows 10 box but haven’t done so as, even though my real gamer days are well behind me, every now and then things appear from the ether

Yeah, that’s pretty much why I did it.

There’s some really good stuff that comes out every now and then.

I can’t think of one that exists and I feel it would be better served as it’s own, so people can find it better.

Haha…still learning stuff. Will definitely share my experience here, as and when I get it going.

You can do either of your cases, however, I’d recommend doing number 2. I sort of do 2 at the moment. I have a lvm of ssds for my “hot data” that I use for my vm os disk, then I use my zfs array for less speed-sensitive data in both datasets and zvols. At the moment, my zvols don’t have any data in them though.

Thanks for confirming.
