ISCSI is a protocol that helps remote access of data over the internet. It can be called the link between two data hubs in varied locations. Internet SCSI is business oriented. A storage area network (SAN) is created using TCP/IP technology to communicate between two separate devices. There is no need for traditional cable system to connect to a network. This is facilitated only by Internet SCSI SAN. You can call Internet SCSI as a wireless network that can be accessed from remote locations. For the functioning of Internet SCSI, it should be run on subnets like LAN or VLAN so that data is not compromised.
The remote access facility of Internet SCSI technology has helped a great deal of people access their files sitting at any corner of the world. Traditional FTP protocol needs a person to transfer a file from a home computer to an office computer but ISCSI has broken all the barriers and can help transfer information without the assistance of anyone. An individual can directly log onto the Internet SCSI hard drive irrespective of wherever he/she is. The greatest advantage of Internet SCSI is that data can be sent in both directions. The protocol is bilateral.
A virtual private network is created allowing complete access to data anytime without any restrictions. In the present scenario where competition is heavy, even a single moment starved of information could prove fatal to your business. Therefore, ensure that your data is available at all times. The ISCSI technology can help you stay ahead of your competitors. Regardless of wherever you are, you can have complete access to the data you want through the Internet SCSI technology. The future of business depends on Internet SCSI technology; therefore, it is important to keep abreast with the technology for the positive benefits of your business.
SCSI uses a parellel communication chain and SAS uses serial Point to Point communication
SCSI or Small Computer System Interface is a set of standards for connecting computers and peripheral devices for data transfer. SCSI is commonly used for hard disks and tape drives, but can connect a wide range of other devices like optical drives like CD/DVD drive if the specific device being connected supports the standard. There are different SCSI port types like parallel SCSI, serial SCSI, Fiber SCSI and iSCSI. More details can also be found on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI - Neeraj Sharma
this is a parent director of FAQ for scsi.. might have to search abit but your answer may be there. http://www.kuci.uci.edu/~ustor/faqs/scsifaq/
single ended scsi is a method of transmitting electrical signals over wires. one wire carries a varying voltage that represent a signal, while other wire is connected to a ground. single emded scsi cables are of 6m-1.3m long. Differential scsi is a method of transmitting information electrically by means of 2 complementary signal pairs sent on 2 separate wires.
Iscsi San is not a person. The name stands for : ISCSI (a transport protocol) for Storage Area Networks (SANs). Iscsi is one of the fastest growing transport protocols.
Historically, hda was used for IDE drives and SDA was used for SCSI drives. Today, regardless of physical interface, all drives are treated as SCSI devices.
The wide SCSI-2 uses a wider data path & emdash;16 bit rather than the normal 8 bit & emdash; for the same 10 Mbps. Combining both fast and wide can, in theory, reach 20 Mbps.
ISCSI HBA is not a business so it does not have a headquarters. ISCSI host bus adapters are used to link different data storage facilities within an ISCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface).
Why is there confusion between EIDE and SCSI drive interface standards
ISCSI stands for "internet small computer system interface". NAS stands for "Network attatched storage". The two acronyms are related because you can speed up your NAS with a ISCSI.
iSCSI runs over Ethernet so it is limited by the speed of your network. iSCSI theoretically runs at 100Mbit, 1000Mbit or 10000Mbit. However there are many other factors that influence its actual speed.
Store House Technologies has really good iSCSI systems available and they are very reasonably priced.
