Yes, the storage is also an essential factor because there might be a lot of IO pressure occurs while running multiple VMs.
However, it’s possible with the 16GB as well, but 32GB can deliver a far better performance.Īs you selected a robust CPU with a large memory? Now it’s time for choosing the storage. With 32GB memory, you can effortlessly virtualize nested VMs with storage appliance and Windows instance running vCentre. If you’re a power user and going to work with dozens of VMs, then you should grab 32GB RAM. That’s why if you’re opting for 16GB memory, you have to ensure it’s upgradable it will come handy in the future. The 16GB memory is usually found in the mid-range machines, while 32GB is only available in workstation laptops or gaming machines. Nowadays, most of the laptops are limited to 32GB memory and comes with 16GB RAM. If you don’t go above the four virtual machines, you can choose 16GB memory for your virtualization laptop. Even you have a super-strong processor with multi-cores and higher clock speed, if your system doesn’t have enough memory, it won’t work. During my work, I have faced this most of the time.
