[mythtv-users] Back-end Virtualization

[Nathan Hawkins]

The Virtual software I have standardized on personally/professionally is Oracle's Virtual Box. It's free and unbelievably well supported. If you are having issues (I think its better than VMWare...) give it a go. The hardware I tend to build for my VM boxes are Intel quad cores with as much memory as my motherboards will handle (typically Kingston or Viking with the aluminum exterior heat sinks). Motherboards are all ASUS (great products, very well supported, last literally years) and I usually go with the absolute cheapest SATA 7200 64 MB cache HDDs I can find but brand new and then set them up in a RAID 5 volume so even if one fails I don't lose my data.

Is anyone here using Xenserver or are all the success stories on VMware?
