I have used this before with no issues. Built new environment using VirtualBox and installed StarWind Free version. As soon as I add disks, my memory usage goes shy high and the VM becomes unusable.

I would say - that's not the best idea to use nested configurations, especially, in SAN - oriented scenarios even for testing purposes :)

Well... VirtualBox.

Only for POC and testing, that's true.

sgmartin18, that scenario can be used for testing, however its a true "no-go" for production.
