Use docker-container or not use it

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I have few high end servers
192gig ram, multicore cpu, 20gig network bandwidth and few SSD in them.

should I use it as bare metal system as elasticsearch data-node or use container?

plan was to use three new system has data node,
three old low end system has master only node + kibana (64gig, less cpu cores)
two system has logstash server + kibana (64gig)

should I start 2+ container in data only node and make it 6 data node?
only thing I can see that I can benefit is use 30gig memory for each container and use individual SSD for that container. practically using more memory and direct access to all SSD.

is it wise to do this?

hoping for some insight. seems to me not many people using container yet with elk
