I'm suspecting the NICs may have fried, as they don't get on the network,
but the ILO card is working fine when plugged into the same ports. However,
all the hardware checks out in the diagnostics. As it would be, we don't
have any spare NICs and the server is out of warranty.

You know you could just put the drive in a working esxi system and mount the
datastore and files ...
Given how easy that is, I wouldn't disagree but if you insist on some other way
to
recover the data, you can always mount the vmfs partitions in windows or Linux.

If you can, get ssh running on the machine, then get winscp running on

I'm not sure if ESXi would see a USB drive or not, but even if it did, it isn't
going to be able to write to an NTFS partition. FAT32 would work, but would
only support drives of a limited size, and the file size would be limited to
2gb, so you'd have to convert your vmdk files to the form
I have found the USB support to be iffy with 3.5 and of course the age of the
systems comes into play..
