But dont I have to present the data back to the ESXi host so that it can read the VMFS5 disk ?
I didn't think BSD understood VMFS5.
When I mount the Volume as a read only volume from the command line the GUI doesn't see the volume.
If the GUI doesn't see the volume I have not yet found a way to present the volume as ISCSI
I am under the assumption that I need to get the volume mounted by an OS that understands VMFS5 formats like ESXi so that I can then move the data off .

I went out yesterday and got myself a dual quad core server with 16gb of ram but I am not sure about migrating the drives to the new server.
Do I need to match up SATA port slots from one server to the other to migrate the drives ?

Right, when you mount from the CLI the GUI doesn't know what you did.

You don't have to match the SATA ports when you move the drives to a different box, ZFS uses it's own method of drive identification.
