Small desktop NAS supporting iSCSI
- Thread starter adeq1
- Start date
Thanks for the replies everyone, the reason i asked was because i need a new NAS anyway and rather than run a seperate box with FreeNAS (or OpenFiler) to provide an iSCSI target for my VMWare-based lab. i thought would see if i could combine it all into one (media, photos and work VMs).
I was looking for a small "desktop" style NAS box rather than a full PC or rackmount applaince as its going to be quieter and produce less heat. There are lots of bigger appliances that do it, but they would be too big, hot and noisey, and this has to go in my office at home.
The only thing i've found so far that has it all is the Iomega Storcenter Pro ix4-200r (iSCSI, uPnP/DLNA, CIFS etc) - just wish that the same option was available in a slightly smaller package. Looks like i may have to pick up another ML115 and build something after all.
