all ESXi downloads can be found on the main page

http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/datacenter_cloud_infrastructure/vmware_vsphere/5_0

...and the free vSphere Hypervisor

No matter I click on download vSphere 5 Essential version or Enterprise version. They link to the same ISO.

This is normal, the difference is in the licensing :-). I presume you want to enterprise license :winking_face:

the media is the same.  Features are defined by license keys.

But I have ESXi 4 for The Enterprise CD around 600MB that display "ESXi 4.1 for The Enterprise" on GUI installation mode. I think it has more services.

sounds to me like someone may have slip streamed an ESXi CD and titled it that way.  I cannot say i've ever seen or heard of "ESXi for the Enterprise"
