Thanks... Do you have the two disks in a RAID array or just a JBOD? I've got a dual-CPU motherboard in a generic rack-mount chassis that I was thinking of using, which is why I was looking to find a PCI RAID card that was supported by ESXi. I guess I don't really *have* to do that even... :-)

It's got 2x 1tb disks, 8gb RAM & a quadcore cpu. So it doesnt even need to be anything special. I'm running openfiler as a vm on it with no issues, great for playing about and discovering different things. T On 23 Sep 2010 19:28, "John Aldrich" <[email protected]> wrote: Thanks.
