Hi, Newbie here
I am buying an HP Z820 with 256GB RAM, plus 4x Samsung SSDs for a test lab.
What version of ESXi/vSphere would people recommend for stability? I gather the GPU passthrough is flaky on 6.0 at the moment, but I dont see as many reports about people using 6.5. Is 6.5 beta?
Also, I have been advised to NOT use the onboard RAID on the Z820 and to get an PCIe SATA RAID controller. Can anyone recommend a cheap one with 4 channels that supports SATA?
Cheers for any advice - early stages as you can probably ascertain.........
