MDT Server Hardware Requirements - Storage Performance

Question

I'm trying to find information on how to size hardware for an MDT server, specifically the storage devices. Are there IOPS requirements or recommendations per active image deployment? Even if I just the the typical I/O block size used during image deployment, I can turn that into something useful. We're trying to build a system that can do 20 simultaneous images writes.

Hi @Dan Even ，

There could not be clear size and scale in MDT, it needs to be based on our environment.

We could configure it referring to SCCM scale and size, here is the article:
