Does this work with ESXi?

It's best if you check compatibility at the VMware website. I've no experience with VSphere ESXi, but my basic understanding is that it's designed for a server environment. However, the Highpoint RocketRAID 640L card is designed as a simple add-on for a Windows or Linux-based PC. If you do a Google search for ESXi the first two results take you to the VSphere website with links to compatibility charts and more.

Should also have mentioned that the VSphere ESXi compatibility page has a link for a "Guided Wizard" or similar words which walks you through the otherwise complex listings to easily find if your other hardware and OS are compatible with ESXi.

You should have no issues running ESXi on this. You would have to by an actual dedicated RAID card though as the on board is a fake RAID and probably isn't supported by ESXi.

Yes! It was easy to install and works great with our servers. The price was reasonable as well.

This is what I have found on that subject, I hope it is helpful :D. I will try to research this more and let you know in a few days.http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/55081-2-will-work-emachine-board

I have it working with my HyperV-V Core 2012 server. Takes some research and some massaging of the Intel drivers after every MS update but this is also a lab environment for me. If I were to do it again though, I'd buy a more current adapter to avoid the hassle though.

I'm not positive, but I think that should work. It works on Kalli natively, so if you are using through a vm I think you will be alright.

Concur this is not a gaming server. Potential is you were using is as a gaming server, but even then doubtful it would be would be what you want. I use it to host esxi with virtual machines for Solaris, WIndows XP, WIndows 7, Kali Linux (Backtrack), Centos and RHEL 6.4 for a home lab.

This was used in a custom XMBC HTPC so I can't give a straight answer on this. It should work on any HTPC build regardless of OS

I didn't Receive any instructions with mine. So I was going to order a pocket programming card to change settings. U plug your esc into card and u can go through settings. ?? Pretty sure it will work.

I priced single components and found just a little savings. Not having to worry about riser card and getting everything packaged in there nicely was why I decided to go with complete system as identified here. I ran Untangle in a VM on ESXi 5.0 without issue - currently running Sophos UTM Home in same configuration for well over a year without issue.

yes it does. worked great for me on windows 8/8.1 and windows 2012 server where I host VMS. make sure to turn off power saving lop or windows turns them off, oops.

It works on Linux Mint 16 (thus Ubuntu), openSUSE, and Debian out of the box. I haven't tested others.

I'm sorry: Mark's question is beyond by level of tech-savvy. I'm using my LaCie FDD with my PowerBook G4. It works equally well with our MacBook Pro. I use it too with an G3 and and iMac. Its versatility is marvelous. It accepts my floppy disks, of any vintage, without a blip. But as to its use with esoteric programs, I have no idea.I wish Mark well in his quest.

You can set up pfsense as a virtual machine on a esxi server, i can vouch for that working.

It's just hardware you can install whatever you want on it. I installed esx 5.5
