VSAN & Atom

I'm looking to build some low power hosts for home.

Does anyone have experience with ESXi 6.0 and VSAN on a Supermicro A1SAi-2750F?

Intel® Atom processor C2750, SoC, FCBGA 1283, 20W 8-Core

The controller is part of the chip (system-on-chip SoC)

Thanks

I think your question is best answered by the vSphere 6 HCL.  The Atom 2700 series is not on it.

For the second question on the controller, I can't be 100% certain, but based on the support and performance of other on board controllers; I would say it's a no go.

That said, just because it's not supported... doesn't mean it won't work.

Thank you, Zach.
