    Gigabit + 10Gb Switches under $550

    Does anybody know of any "el-cheapo" SPF+ to RJ45 10gb GBICs? Been looking around to connect a 10gb RJ45 device to a Dell PowerConnect 7024P with the 10gb module in but everywhere I look I can't get a definitive answer if they'll work. Edit: Closest I've found: Dell compatible -- SFP+ Copper...

    VM with passthrough "freezes" entire ESXi box when shutdown/rebooting guest

    Well I got it solved! But not in the way that I wanted to :( Had to go back to 5.5 Update 3 but absolutely no freezing on startup/shutdown and works like a dream. Guess I'll be staying on this for a while especially as the HTML fling is available :)

    VM with passthrough "freezes" entire ESXi box when shutdown/rebooting guest

    Hi all, VERY strange issue that I've come across and can't seem to get my head around this .. so far I've tried diagnosing this for nearly 12 hours straight without being able to get to the bottom of it. I'm running ESXi 6.0u2 build 3620759 (free license), on a custom build Asus P9x79 PRO...
