I have just uploaded a new release of the online VMware View VDI Flash Calculator.
This new release offers a complete overhaul of the IOPS calculation, providing the ability to breakdown IOPS per disk type or tier. It also offers calculation for the number of VMs allowed to concurrently boot.
I have previously described how IO works in the following article:
Get hold of VDI IOPs, Read/Write Ratios and Storage Tiering
The VDI calculator can be found at http://myvirtualcloud.net/?page_id=1076. Alternatively, go to my blog homepage and select VDI Calculator on the top bar.

Additionally, I have also updated the manual to help you to better use the VDI Flash Calculator. The manual can be found at http://myvirtualcloud.net/?p=1927.
