A simulator doesn't see disks directly. It sees files that it treats as disks. The sizes and number of disks is also quite limited (I think the disks are limited to 1GB and you can only have something like 28 disks per sim).

Can a simulator be used for real disk? E.g. I build a linux box and attach 36 external disks to it, would the simulator be able to see that storage? If so, how? Does anyone have instruction on how to do this?
Thanks,
