      You can have 16 vDisk per VM in XS.

      Yes

      is there any limit on the Windows side? (I've never had to span that many disks, was just wondering.)

      A spanned volume is a dynamic volume consisting of disk space on more than one physical disk. If a simple volume is not a system volume or boot volume, you can extend it across additional disks to create a spanned volume, or you can create a spanned volume in unallocated space on a dynamic disk.
      You need at least two dynamic disks in addition to the startup disk to create a spanned volume. You can extend a spanned volume onto a maximum of 32 dynamic disks.

      So can Span 16 disk, as 16 is limit with XS

              @Scale computing nodes...... same limitations I presume?

              Sorry for taking a week to see the mention. Thanks for thinking of us.

              No, the limitation does not exist on the Scale HC3 clusters. We do not have artificial size limitations. We have tested VMs much larger than 2TB without issue.
