VMWare ESXi Server Build, Homelab Edition
Показать описание
Looking at building your own #VMWare #ESXi hypervisor server for your #Homelab or #SMB? In this video I walk through the hardware choices for my custom built ESX server.
Cool Amazon Stuff 👍👍
I have always had multiple VMBox projects on my main and secondary desktop PCs and even one or two light weight Ubuntu VMs on my laptop. At a certain point I knew I needed to centralize all of this some how to more efficiently allocate system resources. By day, I work in IT (so by night I can work on YT) and building a server like this seemed like a great idea to learn basic concepts around virtualization, networking, storage, and overall system management.
This server is running a Supermicro X10DRi motherboard with two Xeon E5-2660v3 CPUs. Right now I have 64GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed. I have a few PCIe cards installed already, some for passthrough to specific VMs and some for the system as a whole.
Gaming PC Build list:
