When you go to do the reload of an unload/reload
and you are trying this large load source with multiple
smaller virtual drives,
do you select the option to scatter the OS or put it all on 1
drive?

My opinion .... Scattering is always good regardless of the
storage.

I know of no testing to back this up from a performance
perspective.
