Hi Everyone
I am looking at setting up a File Server that uses ISCSI storage. It is the first time I have done this, so I am wanting to get peoples thoughts on whether for CentOS systems you should use Hardware based ISCSI HBA's?
If so do I need to be careful about what HBA I use ? Currently I am looking at purchasing a Dell System using Broadcom ethernet cards/ ISCSI HBA. From google searching it seems QLogic HBA's are quite popular ?
Any suggestions or experience you can offer appreciated.
Have a nice day
