nick w Posted June 4, 2014 Share #2 Posted June 4, 2014 Hi, Great guide. I am in a bit of a conundrum.. I installed Xpenology via a USB and set up my 4x 4TB drives. What i now wish i had done was set up ESXi.. So is there any easy way to move to ESXi from a baremetal install? Thanks N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
