ESXi 5?

I see the website has a lot of info about ESXi5 but it's still not available to download; all I see is ESXi 4.1.

Is there any time line when ESXi 5 will be available for downloading? I have been waiting for it to be available so I can finally use my PE2950 3TB RAID5 hard drives; I don't really want to rebuild it later.

Thanks

Andrew

Hello.

Due to NDAs, no one can tell you the exact date.  General consensus is that it will be around VMworld (end of August).

Good Luck!

At least before the VCP5 official exam... because official document and a demo trial must be present...

So before the end of august... and IMHO before VMworld.
