October 4, 20214 yr Hi Guys I just setup my first windows virtual machine, i assume the image resides in the defualt "domains" folder, now as far as i can see this exists on my Disk 5 my question is i wanted to put a 500GB SSD in after the fact and have that dedicated for the VM, is it just a case of stopping the VM and copying over the "domains" folder using Disk shares? that seems too easy

October 4, 20214 yr Author Cheers for the reply, Ive Just checked and that setting is already set, would this method require i set the new 500Gb SSD drive as a cache disk or add it to a cache pool? as these have not been setup as of yet

But install the drive in the pool. Then check that the Shares are setup as you wish (using a pool or not, check that the name of the pool is the correct one, etc.) In unsure, you can always come with question. If you have questions about shares and pools, your diagnostics would be helpful to understand what you did set up.
