Comment on Best Guest VM Filesystem for NTFS Host

I don’t understand. Why would you store VM disks on NTFS? This isn’t a viable solution and you need to rethink your design. Also for guest filesystems I would go with ext4 as it has lower overhead while still being reasonably modern.

Within guests these days I just use XFS, UFS, or NTFS depending on the os. The hypervisor can have zfs or ceph.

Ufs seems weird to use outside of flash

It seems that way but it performs better than zfs on top of zfs. The only os I ran into that with was opnsense when I was playing with a virtualized firewall.

Don’t do ZFS on ZFS. It will destroy performance. Use Ext4
