Home made SAN

Filed under: diverse — Zinit @ 11:57

I created myself an iSCSI san yesterday. Total cost: various junk i had laying around, so cheap…
Hardware:
Via epia ml8000 with 800Mhz C3 cpu and 256MB ram
4 port cheap-ass pci sata controller
300GB maxtor sata disk

Using debian stable, iscsitarget and system management through webmin.

Works like a charm.
Downside is that the via card only has a 100Mb NIC.
Only one pci slot means no room for a giga card.

Next step: get a hold of hardware to make an esx server.

Sitting here with my tablet to test how good/bad the wordpress poster for android is..
Noticing that typing fast on the nexus 7 takes some practice…
Great tablet though, and The built in 3g makes it perfect.
