USB drive as datastore?

[esuarez78]

Is it possible to add an external USB TB drive to serve as a datastore?  If so, how?

It is not possible to use a USB drive as a datastore. You would be better adding a NAS device to the network that supports NFS or iSCSI. You might also look at eSATA although you won't get hot plug capability with ESXi.

This is obviously late, but thanks for your response & input.
