We've been hearing for a long time about running storage over IP, particularly using the iSCSI protocol. We take a look at the technology, its applications, and some of the devices you can use. For a ...

“It&'s like Fibre Channel when it first started,” said Michael Fanelli, western regional manager at SSI hubcity, a Metuchen, N.J., solution provider. “It languished a year, then it ...

There has been much discussion and a good dose of confusion about the term ISCSI. This relatively new protocol for storage technology offers many compelling benefits, including solid performance and ...

For a long time now expanding storage meant buying more servers and disks. This has proved to be a costly method for increasing storage, and is often an inefficient way of doing things. We are now ...

The main points to consider when choosing between Internet SCSI (iSCSI) and Fibre Channel boil down to two things: cost and performance. "Typically, the trade-off we see people making is between the ...

But what can iSCSI do for you? How about letting you go to CompUSA, buy three USB floppy disk drives, hang them off a Linux server and configure them into a RAID array from a Windows 2000 Server over ...

When it arrived, iSCSI (Internet SCSI) sounded not only exciting but irresistibly logical. Everything else has been hopping onto an ever-faster Ethernet/IP bus, so storage traffic seems to be a ...

Companies evaluating iSCSI (small computer systems interface protocol over the Internet) are driven primarily by the need to lower the cost of their storage infrastructure. However, adoption of iSCSI ...

Even though FibreChannel over Ethernet gets all the hype, iSCSI over Ethernet is just as capable of converging or unifying data center servers, storage and networking, proponents say. Even though ...

We’ve all been hearing about the simplicity and low cost of iSCSI for years now — and how iSCSI would topple FC (Fibre Channel) as the storage networking technology of choice for shops moving from DAS ...

As more and more products enter the market, Internet SCSI is becoming an increasingly attractive alternative to Fibre Channel storage-area network (SAN) technology. Not only is iSCSI cheaper than ...
