I'm getting ready to roll out a new lab setup, and need some advice on how to present the space to a windows vm.
Freenas hardware:
SM MBD-X10SL7-F-O
1230V3
16Gb ram
6x 4Tb NAS drives as Raidz2
My current thought is to attach this storage to the windows 2012 box as iscsi for format as ntfs. Its going to be used as media / backup storage. no vmdk's. I've also seen folks mount the storage directly to the host as NFS, but I don't think I want to go that route, it seems like to many layers. But I am open for suggestions and advice is appreciated.
