HOW THOU?
Hey everyone, I was curious if it's feasible to create a virtual machine on your PC and connect it to another laptop over the same network. Since you're working with limited hardware on his machine—especially with a Ryzen 7 1700X, GTX 1070 Ti SLI, and a 16GB SSD—I'm wondering if setting up a VM would be practical. Also, I'm using a Samsung M.2 500GB SSD. Could someone suggest a way to make this work or let me know it's not possible? Thanks!
You might want to use VirtualBox or a similar tool to create a VM, but expect significant delays in data transfer and insufficient memory for demanding tasks. Instead of always connecting him, consider granting temporary access only when required.
I can't allow him to use my machine since we're both working simultaneously. Still, if we weren't sharing the time, he could use my PC. It's disappointing to hear, but thank you for your understanding.
The remote meeting on a local network runs smoothly enough; don’t stress too much about it. If the laptop seems nearly unusable while running the program, a VM setup shouldn’t be significantly worse on a powerful machine. You might consider adding a few more RAM sticks, but try to give it a shot. Make sure the virtualisation tool’s network configuration connects the network adapters directly, rather than routing traffic through your host machines’ IP addresses.
