Huh, ok but my experience is rather opposite... AoE is crazy fast (where it sits in the ip layer) and iSCSI is pretty good as well given good hardware. Sure, if you run either of them over 100 meg no name nics on cheap switches. Otherwise you would be shocked. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
