A hypervisor is a type of software that enables virtualization by allowing multiple operating systems to share a single hardware host. A Type 1 hypervisor, also known as a bare-metal hypervisor, runs directly on the host's hardware, and manages the guest operating systems running on it.
To determine which drive type to install the hypervisor on, we need to consider the characteristics of each drive type and their suitability for hosting a hypervisor.
SD cards are small, portable storage devices commonly used in mobile devices and cameras. While they can be used for some hypervisors, they are typically not recommended for hosting a Type 1 hypervisor, as they are not designed for continuous, high-performance operation and may have limited capacity.
NAS drives are network-attached storage devices, typically connected to a server or network. While they can be used for data storage in a hypervisor environment, they are not typically used to host the hypervisor itself.
SATA and SAS drives are types of hard disk drives commonly used in servers and desktops. Both SATA and SAS drives are suitable for hosting a hypervisor, but SAS drives are typically more expensive and faster than SATA drives.
In this case, the server has both SATA and SAS controllers, as well as SD card slots and is attached to a NAS. However, neither the SD card nor the NAS drive is the recommended choice for hosting the hypervisor. Therefore, the best option for installing the hypervisor would be either a SATA or SAS drive.
Since the question does not specify any particular requirements, either SATA or SAS drive could be a good choice. However, SAS drives generally have higher performance, which may be advantageous for some hypervisor workloads.
