i have the same problem with my 2HE supermicro server (24x2,5", connected via 
6x mini SAS 8087) and no additional mounting possibilities for 2,5" or 3,5" 
drives.
<br><br>
on those machines i use one sas port (4 drives) of an old adaptec 3805 (i have 
used them in my pre zfs-times) to build a raid-1 + hotfix for esxi to boot 
from. the other 20 slots are connected to 3 lsi sas controller for pass-through 
- so i have 4 sas controller in these machines. 
<br><br>
maybee the new ssd-drives mounted on a pci-e (ex ocz revo drive) may be an 
alternative. have anyone used them already with esxi?
<br><br>
