DL20 VMware MicroSD or internal USB3.0

[howie52]

Hi,

I am planning for a DL20 Gen9 deployment of ESX 6.5. As this is a small scale integration in my home lab, I will safe the effort of providing an Autodeploy solution. My idea is keep the ESXi image on flash media as I did in many bigger scale integrations before based on DL360.

As the DL20 Gen9 offers internal MicroSD and USB3.0 connectivity I find myself in a Pro-Con decision witch to prefer.

Do you know any good reason to prefer one of both as technically both should serve the purpose?

BR, Uwe
