I was surprised to hear that Windows just added native NVMe which Linux has had for many years. I wonder if Azure has been paying the SCSI emulation tax this whole time.
- athoneycutt 10mo agoIt was always wild to me that their installer was just not able to detect an NVMe drive out of the box in certain situations. I saw it a few times with customers when I was doing support for a Linux company.

- ndiddy 10mo agoThe user VMs are mostly Linux but Azure itself runs on a stripped down version of Windows Server and all the VMs are hosted inside Hyper-V.
