I would like to add a second hard drive to a non-production server, where network storage is not an option. I only need this available to a single VM, which is running Windows Server 2008 R2.
In everyone's opinion, is it best to do the following:
1. Pass through the device using virtio. virtioX: /dev/sdb
2. Format the disk to a relevant partition structure and create a qcow image and add to the machine this way.
Which will give the best performance?
Many thanks,
James
