Hi,

Anyone has any idea or success passing through the NVME slots on the motherboard through ESXI?
Just greyed out and shown as incapable.

Well, that failed.
I also tried placing a 4 x NVME card on the PCI-E x16 - that works fine with passthrough.
However, the LSI 9210 HBA would not work at all on the PCI-E x4 slot on the motherboard. ESXI would not detect it as a valid adapter although the it shows up on lspci.

Ended up exchanging the motherboard for a x570d4u.
Just shame I wasted my money on the ASUS Hyper 4 x NVME card.
