Thank you all, I followed the Atlas guide and got Unraid 5 working with ESXi 6.0 and the plop method. Parity sync and Check went fine and i've been filling things up. Side question if anyone knows the answer: I see my disks as: disk1, disk2, etc. Is there an easy way to re-name these disks that show up in the tower host?

My plan was to follow what some people have been running, which is pass through my hd's through a LSI card flashed in IT mode and install EXSi bare metal. Other forums that i've found suggest running software raid in a VM is a very bad idea and that I should just get my own dedicated NAS. Does anyone have feedback on this? Also anyone have a guide on how to get everything going by chance? I'm new to EXSi but i've been wanting to both build a NAS (Using Unraid for this) and learn Exsi at the same time.
