 Hi. The choice depends on your use case and what you find works best for the performance and resource consumption of your deployment. Perhaps some VMware users will comment based on their experience with MongoDB on VMware?

Hi King!

If you care at all about the performance of your MongoDB system, you should use thick storage.  If you're just playing around, doing development, or don't care about performance for some other reason, then you can use thin storage.
