Mac Pro "TrashCan"

 Posting mostly because the hardware is interesting.  This MacPro known as late 2013 or 6,1, or as most people refer to it: "The Trashcan".  In this particular case two of them are running VMmware ESXi v6.5 which is supported by VMware and Apple says it is legal to run as many virtual Mac VM's.  Apple claims they only support 32gb of RAM (8gb * 4 slots), but these have 64gb, and others on the internet say it will do 128gb.  The CPU is also upgradeable.  I did sucessfully test DDR3 FB ECC RAM out of an HP Proliant G7. The hard drive is a NVMe,
