I'm considering one from Digi.com

What would you use for ESXi 6.7 Hosts in a vCenter?

I've ordered one AW-USB-14.

Seems to have good reviews.

You don't need hypervisor support for that - normally these boxes come with a software that connects the USB device to the VM. I've been using myUTN devices and they kept running for years without a single flaw.
