Mount Usb harddisk to Esxi host

Dear All

I have been trying to put the usb harddisk to an esxi host. It is not present the usb disk to Esxi. But I would like to present the usb disk to the host and use it as a datastore. Do you have any idea for me? could we mount usb to datastore01?

I am looking from you.

my best regards

AFAIK usb-disk as datastore for ESXi is still not supported.

USB isnt supported for datastores, but eSATA drives are.
