Hello Jeff,

In that case, then I think that it would work pretty well for a backup link
or low cost medium speed storage.

no, obviously it is not as fast as FC. that is not the point. I am looking
at it particularly in the wintel space for cheap connectivity. If I have 100
tinker-toy windows boxes, I don't want to buy 200 HBAs. I want to buy 100
HBAs and use the iSCSI link as failover. Where this also looks promising is
in the engineering graphics shops(UNIX desktops with a need for access to
large storage at low cost).
