I seem to remember the is the CPU chips which are not supported in the DL380 G5's and to be honest G5's are probably near retirement age (there has been three generations since). You will also find that things like RAM for these servers is rather expensive.

 

With regards to allowing the auto-update from ESX to ESXI I have done it but then fine odd little issues and prefer to blank wipe and install again.

Exactly - depending on your requirements for RAM it can actually be cheaper to by new servers with lots of RAM then it is to upgrade the RAM alone.
