    Hello pros!
    We`ve got about 60 clients in network. We used to use Openfiler as iSCSI SAN solution. Recently fatal error happend, and after i fixed it I want to migrate to another iSCSI solutin - I don`t want to risc. So my issues are:
    1)Secure networking. It`s realy important for us;
    2)Robust backup solution. I need that to be realy in sure after accident I had.
    3)Openfiler was pretty hard to use, so I wont something easier;
    4)Good performance, of course.
    I realy need your professional opinion!

    Hi! I think you would like to use some Windows iSCSI solution, it could be WSS, StarWind or datacore. I`ve tested datacore, and it`s to hard for me, but maybe you`ll like it.

    Yeah, I`m using StarWind for a year, and everything is perfect for me. By the way, as I know soon StarWind with HA will be realized.

    I`ve tested Datacore, StarWind and Lefthand. IMHO:
    1)Datacore - Erick was right: too complicated;
    2)Lefthand - good if your business is pretty big;
    3)StarWind - good.
    Thank guys!
