At a very basic level, ESX was software that ran on another OS (linux) and ESXi is an OS in itself.

Here is a link to VMware's info: http://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere/esxi-and-esx/compare.html
But from a practical standpoint it doesn't matter. ESX is dead. ESXi is the only version still shipping and the only version Cisco has ever support for UC.
Here is the docwiki with all kinds of info on specific supported hardware, etc: http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_in_a_Virtualized_Environment
