I'd be interested in this, too. The vast majority of the iSCSI stuff I found online after reading the first email in this thread is either concerned with NAS vs SAN, or ROI arguments, or other non-technical points. I'd be really keen to find out the benefits of iSCSI over, say NFS, or HTTP streaming. Many thanks! Jonathan PS I'd also /love/ to find out, definitively, if iSCSI *requires* a physical SCSI disc, or if there's a glue layer on the server-side in Linux that would let one run it on an IDE disk or RAID. -- Don't anthropomorphize computers. They don't like it. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
