I know im probably going to catch shit for this but I would like to throw 4-6 sata drives into my vmware server not for virtual machines but for file storage. While this is not supported by VMWare there have been cases where this has worked using the right sata controller.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19083546 Sun, 16 Sep 2007 02:56:55 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19082990 said by JJV:

The performance is absolutely HORRIBLE! If you only have 3 disks, do a mirror with a hot spare.

Otherwise, nice setup!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19068289 Thu, 13 Sep 2007 15:32:18 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19067335 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19067335 Thu, 13 Sep 2007 12:50:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-My-Home-VMWare-setup-19067142
