I don't plan on using a CloudDrive disk in this way - too many things to go wrong - but it does appear that the virtual disk is seen differently to a physical disk by VMware Player. Not sure if this is a Player issue or CloudDrive issue.
* Create a virtual disk in CloudDrive (say 20GB), but don't format
* Create new VM in Vmware Player
* Add the CloudDrive disk as an exisiting physical disk to the new VM * The disk appears as a 2.5GB disk
Also when adding a pre-partitioned and formatted CloudDrive as a physical disk, existing partitions aren't listed like they would be on a real disk.
