Hello,

My name is Brian Patrick, and I’m a beginner Systems Engineer. I would like to learn how to deploy Dell PowerEdge servers, specifically focusing on configuring RAID and installing ESXi. I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with a detailed, step-by-step guide in PDF format to help me understand these processes.

As I am still new to this, any insights or resources would be extremely helpful. Please let me know if you need any further information.

Thank you for your support!
