October 5, 20205 yr Hey guys, I am hoping someone can shed some light and explain something to me. I’ve always read that passing through an nvme to a vm is better and faster than creating a v-disk on your cache drive I have a main disk (c drive) for my vm that’s a 70GB virtio disk sitting on the cache that has windows 10 on it and a NVME (d drive) drive that is being passthrough as a secondary drive for the vm. The main disk (c drive) scores 21GB/s and the NVME (d drive) scores 2.4GB/s. The NVME is scoring correctly but How is it possible that I’m getting 21GB/s from the cache drive?!? Current setup: - i9-990k CPU - ASRock B365M Phantom Gaming 4 Mobo - 2x16 Corsair vengeance RAM - 1 - 10TB parity drive - 3 - 8TB disks - 512GB crucial SSD for cache - 1080super passthrough for vm - quadro p600 for plex - 1TB NVME western digital SN550 passthrough for vm
