Hi,

I have no experience with this server myself, but I learned the other week that there's no VT support.

So while you might be able to run ESX 3.5 on it, you won't be able to run 64 bits guests.

For more details check the HCL

Hello,

I know that this is an old post, but yes, the x335 runs ESX and ESXi 3.5 just fine.

I know because I have one whirring away upstairs doing just that.
