Hey all, I'm looking to buy a few first gen Fusion-IO IOdrive 320gb (HP Branded IO Accelerator) for my home lab to be used with VMware VSAN.
Question - can you run Fusion-IO Firmware on the HP branded cards? HP only supports up to ESXi 5.5 with the drivers/firmware on their website, but Fusion-IO has drivers/firmware for ESXi 6 on theirs.
I noticed that the 3.2.8 firmware from HP is much larger than the 3.2.11 firmware from Fusion-IO.
I'm hoping these cards will take the 3.2.11 flash and I can use the latest drivers.
Thanks for any help.
