Not sure if this is off topic, but anyway..

I used Atto years ago, haven't in a long time.  Don't remember GlobalSAN.  
There was also one with "tree" in its name, don't remember its full name and I 
think they shut down. 

The odd thing is that Apple doesn't have one of its own.  Way back around 2005 
or so they were planning to; I may even have seen a beta of it but that may be 
a bad memory.  But nothing actually shipped.

Some searches turned up a few bits of info.  One is an open initiator on 
Github, and a note about it on a list that says turning it on requires 
disabling some security mechanisms because it's not signed.  Perhaps you have 
the ability to sign your own copy to avoid that.

Another is a product called KernSafe that says it has a free Mac OS iSCSI 
initiator (they also sell a target).  I know nothing about it, never tried it.

Finally, I found an announcement from GlobalSAN saying they now have Catalina 
support.  So perhaps "broken" has been fixed.
