iSCSI Storage or IP SANs come in a wide variety of flavors and prices. Time has shown that name on the label and the quality/performance/features of the array do not always go hand in hand. Some vendors charge for each feature while others bundle them making it less expensive for the customer to acquire and less expensive for the vendor to maintain and update.
One thing for sure is that time and experience have proven that the performance and durability (mean time between failures) is a whole lot better than originally thought. Or at least versus the negative rumors by the FC crowd. Their FUD made IP SANs growth slower but in the end the market learned not to believe everything they hear.
Your experiences would be greatly appreciated, so if you have the time, tell us about them.
