TCO and ROI of SANS - under construction

Why iSCSI? - under construction

DR, HA and iSCSI - under construction

iSCSI, all the availability, scaleability and manageability benefits of fibre channel SANs at a fraction of the cost and without the intense learning curve.
"iSCSI stands to succeed because it leverages existing IP network infrastructure and thus does not require as significant an investment.... In the end, it wins the day because of the enormity and entrenchment of IP networks."
- Jon William Toigo - author of "The Holy Grail of Data Storage Management"
