Why each option
VMware Converter Standalone has a restriction that prevents adding extra virtual disks to the destination when converting a Windows NTFS volume-based source.
VMware Converter Standalone does not allow the administrator to add additional virtual disks to the destination virtual machine when the source uses volume-based cloning on a Windows NTFS volume. The destination disk layout is constrained to match the source, meaning zero extra disks can be introduced during the conversion wizard.
Adding 1 extra disk is not possible because Converter Standalone's volume-based conversion of NTFS sources locks the destination disk count to the source configuration.
Adding 2 extra disks exceeds what the tool supports; no new disks can be inserted beyond the source layout for this configuration.
Adding 3 extra disks is not supported; the conversion type and source constraints prohibit any additional virtual disks at the destination.
