***Newbie question*** ESXi on MacMini5.2

$

Hello everyone,

My name is Robert W. and I'm very new to virtual  - just started studying VMware VCP for my certification.

Following various sources, I have managed to install and run ESXi on MacMini5.2 mid 2011@2.5 GHz, but only with 8GB RAM, bare metal installation.

I'm upgrading to SSD and 16GB very soon. My box is booting up just fine and I'm able to run a few various Linux distros as well as Windows Server 2012 R2 VM and Windows 7 WM

This little machine is a great tool for studying OS's and servers.

The only problem I've stumbled upon is the that I cannot access any kind of USB flash drive connected as a pass-through to be reflected inside of the Client.

I've done some researches online until now but nothing that can help me out. I'm also aware about the USB pass-through compatibility list.

Any suggestion and help will be appreciated.

Many thanks and best regards.

 

Robert W.
