What disk image should I use with VirtualBox, VDI, VMDK, VHD or HDD?

Latest versions of VirtualBox supports several formats for virtual disks, but they forgot to provide a comparison between them.



  • VDI

  • VMDK

  • VHD

  • HDD


Now, I am interested about a recommendation or comparison that considers the following:



  • be able to use dynamic sizing

  • be able to have snapshots

  • be able to move my virtual machine to another OS or even another free virtualization solution with minimal effort (probably something that would run fine on Ubuntu).

  • performance
