Has anyone successfully used this with ESXi?

My Mini is in agony with a thunderbolt 10gbe adapter and 2 NVME M2 storage adaptors. They are hot to the touch and imagine how hot the mini is with its power supply doing all the work.

I have a free thunderbolt port. If I add another ethernet adaptor OR the other storage adaptor, it doesn’t work . If I unplug something else it works. So I have definitely maxed the power on the mini.

If this worked it would not only be a nice housing for both the caching tier and storage tier for vsan, but it would also act as a powered thunderbolt “hub”.

I would be really excited to hear if anyone else has successfully used this with esxi 7 or newer.
