I am in the process of rebuilding my home lab and I was wondering if it is worth it to use a fast NVME M.2 SSD for a ESXi 6 home lab (something like a Samsung 950 pro)
I will probably be using a i7 6700 as cpu with 32-64 GB of ram (depending on final budget)
Will the increase in IO give me a decent performance boost over a cheaper SATA SSD?
----------
PS. I just found in the documentation of this mobo:
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Core/Z170/C7Z170-SQ.cfm
http://www.supermicro.com/manuals/motherboard/Z170/MNL-1720.pdf
that is supports VT-d
Do you think this would be a good choice as a motherboard?
Thanks
