So we have Dell R840 with the following drives below. We ended using the SSD drives for the OS installed. We did not use the Boss controller since I don't like the idea of removing the chassis if needed to replace hardware. Would that be ok with the SSD drives on this version?
So far with the version of ESXi (build number 19482537), I am seeing the Time Sync issue with the host (some are false positive). I read a solution where to uncheck "enable monitoring events". Also the configurations on the port group aren't saving (inconsistent).
We are on 6.5 and need to roll out new version on new hardware (one year old already due to supply chain).
