StarWind iSCSI SAN benefits

StarWind allows you to build your own high availability SAN at an affordable price. In under 30 minutes you can have a high performance, reliable and scalable shared storage for your server applications that is very easy to manage and administer. iSCSI storage allows any IT administrator to easily deploy a true SAN over an IP network using standard Ethernet switches. There's no need to learn the more complex skills required for Fibre Channel (FC) storage and your total storage costs are reduced since there's no FC switches or cabling to buy.
