Second question is have you tested this on common SATA drives? 3. are you using Linux iSCSI or other sharing methods like FTP, SAMBA etc. and if yes then how reliable iSCSI could be since i have a bit bad experience with openfiler and iSCSI connection with XP Clients. so i want to ask your opinion. 4. and the test results that you have shown are only tests or you are working on it in productions (you know reliability is also some thing that i need to know as i am going to be trying this in production) 5. would you please share some details of you SAN BOX like HARDWARE and OS level.
