The (QEMU Copy-On-Write) format is highly efficient for virtual machines because it only uses disk space as data is actually written, rather than pre-allocating the entire disk size.
: To get decent performance, you’ll need to load VirtIO drivers during or after the setup for networking and disk I/O. Benefits of Using QCOW2 Over Other Formats
A .qcow2 file is a disk image format used primarily by QEMU and KVM virtual machines. It is not a standard Windows installation format (which typically uses .iso ).
: Point your emulator to the ISO as the boot drive and the .qcow2 file as the hard drive to perform a fresh installation. Key Requirements for Virtualization
