convert esxi virtual disk to HyperV virtual disk

[jfish]

I need to migrate a few virtual servers on ESXi 4.1 to Microsoft HyperV 2012 R2 - any free tool available to convert the virtual disks.

Not used any, jsut did a quick sarch for VMDK to VHD tools and found this one:

Are you using VMM? Or NetApp storage for that matter?

I've used a couple before (will try and dig out the names) but make sure to make a copy of the disk first as it can go a bit t*t's up!

I think Starwind do a V2V converter... Never tried it tho....

Wouldn't it be easier to do a clone of the disk rather actually converting it.

Clone the drive to a network store, then when you've created your new disk restore the image from the network?

I've used the 2tware converter on quite a few with great success.
