Thanks a lot for the good news. it would be a lot easier to setup.

I will do that asap.

no it won't help. I had tried that before. I tried many parameters and
also tried to set the "media type" manually at windows (the function
seems only designed for storage pools, not normal devices).
"discard_granularity=0" is the first parameter which is working. I am
glad that it works. or I can only stay with very old drivers or
replace virtio-blk with virtio-scsi.
