Virtual Machine Compatibility with VMware ESXi 5.5

vSphere 5.5 introduces a new virtual machine compatibility with several new features such as LSI SAS support for Oracle Solaris 11 OS, enablement for new CPU architectures, and a new advanced host controller interface (AHCI). This new virtual-SATA controller supports both virtual disks and CD-ROM devices that can connect up to 30 devices per controller, with a total of four controllers. This enables a virtual machine to have as many as 120 disk devices, compared to the previous limit of 60.

Table 1 summarizes the virtual machine compatibility levels supported in vSphere 5.5.
