Folks, Here is an article on this: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/07/17/1916214 It also talks a bit about ATA over Ethernet (AoE) which is a "cheap" way of doing SANs - cheap being a relative term. I myself would rather use iSCSI as it runs over IP (and therefore doesn't have to be on same segment). But AoE is still interesting as well.
