Hi folks
On an older laptop I can't really notice any performance problems with running W11 from a "Physical" VHDX file compared with running it from a "Native" SSD. Note these are physical Virtual Harddisks -- not Virtual machines so each Windows system runs as a "Real Windows system" -- i,e you can't run them concurrently etc as per Virtual machines.
I'm not really intrested in "Microsecs difference - bench mark stats" -- as an ordinary user I really can't see any difference -- there may well be some of course.
The only difference is slightly longer boot -- and that's because it displays the boot menu as I have 3 possible VHDX systems that can be booted.
Anybody tried this stuff on more modern really snappier hardware.
Cheers
