“The second factor—which is ultimately the most important in the success of VDI—is the storage I/O required to provide a better-than-PC or equal-to-PC end-user experience. From a business point of view, a VDI initiative won't get past the pilot phase if it becomes clear that the design doesn't provide a satisfying, scalable user experience. With the exception of the most expensive storage solutions, storage serving VDI is often incapable of providing the necessary I/O required to deliver a solid end-user experience.“
