Hello all!
So just a basic question and don't hate me for this if you are long time lover of ESXI as I am!
I am simply here to ask if the support is ready and or if FreeNAS at its current state can be trusted to run VMs? I'm looking to replace my ESXI 6.5 build with FreeNAS as the only OS on the hardware. That being said my vms are semi light in production I have just a few game servers running on Debian / Windows Example: ( Minecraft and JC3 MP server). The primary objective here is to remove ESXI from my environment as all I use it for is small vms.
Here is the server specs:
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1230V3 Haswell 3.3GHz LGA 1150 80W BX80646E31230V3 Server Processor.
RAM: Kingston KVR16E11/8 ECC Unbuffered DDR3 1600 4x8GB (32GB).
MOBO: ASUS P9D-C/4L ATX Server Motherboard.
SSD: 2x Samsung 840 EVO 250GB / Samsung 840 EVO 120GB / Corsair Force LS Series CSSD-F60GBLS 2.5“ 60GB.
HDD: 9x Red NAS Hard Drive WD30EFRX 3TB (raid z2)
CPU COOLER: ZALMAN CNPS9500 CPU Cooling Fan/Heatsink.
Raid CARD #1: ASUS PIKE 2008. ( For SSD vm Storage )
Raid CARD #2: LSI Internal SATA/SAS 9211-4i.
Raid Expander: Intel RAID Twenty-four port Expander Card RES2SV240.
PSU: CORSAIR RM Series RM450 450W ATX12V.
CASE: NORCO RPC-4224 4U
