partition vs raw

[LinuxMan]

Hello, I'm new to Proxmox and I plan to install different vm's, some with full virtualization. For best performance i think raw on the lvm partition is the best choice. But for one vm i would like to prefer three real partitions instead of one virtual disk. Is this possible with Proxomx? And is this faster than a virtual raw disk?

Lvm volumes are 'real' partitons, best performance.

You can manually configure your VM to use any device you want, for example:

ide0: /dev/sdb3

And is this faster than a virtual raw disk?

No, I don't think this is faster.

Thanks for your answers. Now I know what to do I think.
