  • Create a reliable and scalable storage environment at home with iSCSI

    Now you can easily create your own NAS home network storage server. Your system identifies the iSCSI network target as a local drive, enabling you to connect your NAS box as if it was physically inside your computer. You can leverage your computer's built-in iSCSI tool to achieve faster performance from your local network storage. Better still, iSCSI allows home users to consolidate storage into a data center array, giving hosts the appearance of locally attached disks.
