First Look GEN8 ESXi/vSAN ESA 8 Home Lab (Part 1)

I'm kicking off my next generation home lab with this first look in to my choice for an ESXi 8 host. I plan to evolve this host into a #vmware #vsan ESA cluster with #intel Optane drives. NOTE: This is just a first look around some of the ideas I'm forming for my next generation home lab and in no way is this my final build. I recommend folks check out my play list to see how this Home Lab evolves.    • Gen8 VMware ESXi/vSAN 8 Home Lab   Update Mar-20-2023: My most current Build of Materials (BOM) can be found here: vmexplorer.com/home-lab-bom/ There will be more videos to come as this series evolves! #Optane #IntelXeon #Xeon #vExpert #VMware #Cloud #DataCenter
