March 21, 201313 yr So I've never experienced this on any other hosts I've installed ESXi to. The plan is to use a mirrored RAID set utilizing the on board RAID that will be my ESXi install and VMFS Datastore. The strange thing is I setup the motherboard for Intel RAID rather than LSI (not real sure if it makes a difference). But regardless of the way I set it up, the RAID volume doesn't appear for ESXi, instead I see both disks separately, even though the mirrored set shows it's status as 'normal'. Most of the time I've see ESXi installs show the mirrored set volume. Any thoughts? This isn't necessarily an UnRAID question, but the idea is that UnRAID will run as a VM.
