December 27, 20169 yr Dear Community, I'm planning to grant my windows machine high speed access to the unraid by running a Windows VM on it and connecting to that via 4Gb/s Fibre Channel direct connection. I could, in theory, then route the internal Network bridge through to my Fibre Channel connection (which, as I have read elsewhere, is not supported in Unraid natively). So now on to the question: Will the internal br0 of the VM allow speeds in excess of 400MB/s to the UnRAID? (I have a 480GB cache SSD)

December 27, 20169 yr Author on that note.. seems my Fibre Channel Idea wont work since the VM would access the Server via IP, which seems difficult to impossible to get working with Fibre.
