NOTE: For configurations where StarWind VSAN service is running inside a virtual machine, it is recommended to passthrough RAID or HBA controller to the virtual machine.
I have 2 Dell R750 servers with PERC H755 controllers and 8 1TB SSD (per server) configured as a single RAID 5. Running ESXi 6.7. from mirrored SD cards.
How much of a performance hit will I see by not passthrough the RAID to the VSAN VM?
