Hi.

I have a S5512WGM2NR motherboard and a M1015 I would like to get to work in Esxi 5.0.

When I try to start Esxi it always stops at loading megaraid_sas driver... I have flashed the with latest bios and the M1015 with latest bios...

If I load up the server directly in win2k8 r2 the M1015 starts just fine and works great...

Any ideas?

First post, great site.............
I hate to hijack, but I'm looking at both of these products myself.
The Tyan has an onboard RAID adaptor with 8 SATA ports. I hear a LOT about the 1015's too.
Which is better to have? if the 1015 is better, wouldn't I save about $80 or more and get a motherboard without the built-in RAID (SUPERMICRO MBD-X9SCM-F-O), or is it still better to get the S5512WGM2NR?
Thanks for the heads up. I'm looking at running ESXI 5.0 (might try Hyper-V) running SBS2011, WHS2011, untangle, win7 clients.
Thanks
Ricoks
