All 735 of them.

isnt that just a list of vmklinux drivers which were depreciated, and not necessarily a list of all the hardware which also doesnt have a native driver?

I beleive so, I dont think it covers CPU's etc. I havent looked at the complete list myself though.

Thank's for the list ! The Fusion IO ioScale also don't work in 7.0

Here are the lists from Vmware:

• 7.0 native and removed in driver deprecated devices
• 7.0 VMKlinux deprecated devices
• Deprecated Devices 7.0 native and not removed in driver

Heh. Did they keep the e1000 (deprecated) support simply because there is probably a crap-ton of guest VMs relying on e1000 as their base NIC type and they would have to drag it kicking and screaming into VSphere 7 (Hello ne1000 driver)? I can only cringe at the number of "legacy" (Windows Server 2003 and 2008, etc) VMs that IT departments were forced to babysit...
