I understand that the performance gain will be small. In fact the "gain" will be negative. Anything else you see is placebo. A "raw" disk is still a virtual drive, it goes through all the same VM abstraction layers as before, the only layers skipped are some host layers like cac...

Ou... Happy new year. )))

Why are you even trying to mess around at this level? It doesn't sound like you know enough to do it safely, and a mis-step could corrupt your drive. If you're doing this because you are under the impression that bypassing filesystem caching will give you a faster drive then I'm afraid that would b...

But I do see that the disk appears to still be online in the host Disk Management, which in my experience won't let the Raw Disk Access work That is, the entire disk must be disconnected. Even if I use one partition? It is sad. If so, I'll connect another hard drive to the system. And I will comple...

This does not work. Regardless of the choice of the hard disk partition, its full size is still displayed.
Sorry for the image quality. I had to reduce the size.

Woo!!! Fabulous. Thank you very much. I can finally get started.

In fact the official documents do provide precisely that: I have attached screenshots. This is all the information on how to build a team in Windows. I have already looked into this.

It's strange that when I do a search for "This application cannot be launched on your PC", I only get hits on Russian sites. If this does not mean what I thought (a misleading translation of "VBoxManage is not recognized"), then the only thing I think it could mean is missing DL...

You have already done what? I mentioned a couple of alternatives. The screenshots show what I was doing. Image 4.png Image 3.png Image 2.png It's strange that when I do a search for "This application cannot be launched on your PC", I only get hits on Russian sites. If this does not mean w...

On Windows hosts you must provide a complete path to VBoxManage, or add the VirtualBox program folder to your default search path. I don't like to do either, so instead I use a trick: I put a file called "VBoxManage.bat" somewhere on the existing path, e.g. in the C:\Windows folder. This ...
