iSCSI (Internet SCSI)
- An IETF standard
- Maps SCSI blocks into Ethernet packets
- A method for transporting low latency SCSI blocks across IP networks
—with performance equivalent to direct-attached storage
Uses familiar and inexpensive
- Ethernet technology and components
- Switches 10/100 & Gig-E
- Routers
- VPNs
- VLAN’s

Highlights
- Cost-effective shared storage over standard Ethernet networks
- Compliant with IETF iSCSI standard (RFC 3720)
- Microsoft Windows Storage Server Virtual Disk Service (VDS) compatibility
via Qlogic’s SANsurfer VDS manager
- CHAP authentication security (one way)
- 12 drive bays implementing 3Gbps, SATA-II disk drives
- Storage volumes presented via SCSI-like ID/LUN mapping as iSCSI targets
- Real-time event notifications over variety methods
- Java-based, remote access using the RAIDWatch® manager

Features
- Two Gigabit Ethernet host interface
- 3Gbps SATA-II drive interface
- Dual PCI-X bus (64-bit/133MHz) architecture with ASIC266 RAID
engine (750FX-600 + ASIC266)
- Enhanced chassis design
- Hot-swap BBU
- Redundant/hot-swap power supply modules
- Redundant/hot-swap cooling modules with three(3)
dual-speed fans
- Management locally through RS-232C terminal, or remotely using
GUI manager(Java-based RAIDWatch) over Internet
- Intelligent Drive Handling
- Media Scan Task Scheduler
