Yep! thats painful $$$ (no support for esxi 6.7 and msa 2040)
I'm using esxi 6.7 and the MSA 2040 - I'm getting some weird results that you don't get with 6.5 - having to find workarounds - I've doucmented them in other postings (watch out for disks with different sector format sizes in the same virtual disk pool)
