So before I post my full detailed build setup for advice I'm at a fork on the planned setup. I'm looking at the usual FreeNAS (6x3TB), pfSense, Misc VM's setup using ESXi..
My options for MB are both from Supermicro but I'm still debating on either a C232 board X11SSL-CF which comes with the LSI 3008 SAS which I can flash to IT for pass through or a C236 board ie X11SSM-F and add M1015 for pass through.
The convenient option would be to get the board with the LSI 3008 however that board is a C232 which lacks some virtualization advanced features!
Any advice would be appreciated!
