Hi Shamil,

Just for fun I wanted to see how this would work.  In the Computer Management screen, I right-clicked Disk Management and the only item on the menu was 'Help'.  Hmmmmm ...

I'm using W7 Pro.

Hi All --

Do you use Virtual Hard Disks on real computers and on VMs as e.g. it is described in the following article:

"Create and Use a Virtual Hard Disk on Windows 7"
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee872416.aspx

?

�I wonder wouldn't using virtual hard disks result in some (significant) performance hits especially when �virtual hard disks will be shared on host computer to use them from VMs via "Map Network Drive" feature?

Thank you.

-- Shamil�
