I'm new at this; please be gentle 
.
I made a new Win 7-64 Enterprise VM in Workstation 8.0.5. I asked for a 60GB virtual disk implemented with multiple files, and I ended up with 64 vmdk files (49 of which are 320 KB).
I did the same thing a few months ago (on an earlier version of Workstation) and its 60 GB virtual disk comprises just 10 vmdk files, ranging in size from 1 GB to 28 GB.
Why did the new VM end up with so many more vmdk files, and so many small ones?
Thanks,
David
