Hello,
I have a physical Windows 10 system that I'd like to convert to run on an ESXi 7 host, but I'd like to have the two disks created as thin provisioned. I recently used the StarWind V2V convertor to migrate a laptop to the same host, but don't remember seeing an option that allowed me to specify thin provisioning for the target volumes.

I read in another forum posting that thin provisioning is available, and I'm wondering if someone can give me a hint as to where I would specify this during the conversion process. Thanks in advance for your help with this!

Welcome to StarWind Forum.
You can convert it into ESXi growable device in UI (the help document section needs to be updated).
