I've been using my Opensolaris BOX for while, with 6 internals drives under ZFS. More recently I've been playing with ESXi and i've got to say this platform is amazing; therefor my plan is to buy a nice SSD drive, install ESXi, create a VM with OpenSolaris and add my 6 disks into the vm and do a zpool import and all my data will be there.

My question is very simple, if I import 6 drives in the VM is there any risk to loose my data? or it will just be very straight forward and ESXi will just make the drive visible to the VM without touching the disk?

Cheers!
