Cannot find adaptec raid controllers on the vmware hardware comaptibility list (HCL)

Posted on 11:40 AM by Unknown

Looks like Adaptec is now PMC-Sierra. I didn't know that and I'm sure a lot of other people aren't aware of this as well. The fact that adaptec, a staple of raid controllers is listed as  another company is mind boggling. Why mess around with such a well known name.



Greetings from Adaptec by PMC!

Sorry for the confusion, []! Our cards are listed under PMC-Sierra in the "Brand Name" column on the compatibility search. Per the compatibility list, our 6405 card is compatible with the following ESX versions:

ESXi 5.0 U1
ESXi 5.0
ESX / ESXi 4.1 U2
ESX / ESXi 4.1 U1
ESX / ESXi 4.1
