I recently read that it is the end of the road for USB boot drives for ESXi 7.
I was ready to upgrade my Homelab from 6.7 to 7.0 and I am now considering what to install ESXi on to.
I have passed through my onboard SATA controller to a storage VM (OmniOS), so I have no onboard ports available.
I could use a PCIe x1 Sata controller card, but instead I was thinking of using a USB-to-SATA adapter, to make use of the onboard USB socket and an old Sata-SSD drive.
Would this be ok?
