I'm having some issues about performance (specially Harddisk I/O). Firstly, how did you conclude the disk performance is bad? How did you measure it? To what did you compare it? Virtualization always introduces IO latency. Secondly, ML 350 is a product family - which generation (e.g. G6?) do you have? This is important because only G6 supports Nehalem-type CPUs which have EPT support - everything older is simply too slow.
