Supermicro X9DRD-iF board & ESXI 4.1?

[miloshevitch]

Please, can someone tell does Supermicro X9DRD-iF compatible with ESXI 4.1? (only SATA disks will be used)

Hardware compability list doesn't include this board, but i hope that owners of this board made in experiments...

I run ESXi 5.1 on one of these so shouldn't be a problem . Most supermicro boards work fine with ESXi (4.0, 4.1,...) and there is a "tested" list on their website.

Still waiting for lucky customers who have run ESXI 4.1. I am not sure about backward compatibility of ESXI product

Only ran ESXi 4.1 on X8 (without any problems) so can't help any further at the moment. I'm sure someone will.

Decided to test it with ESXi 4.1 on an USB stick. Works without a problem
