    Storage Technologies

    Simple Servers- local IDE (parallel and serial) or SCSI


    hard drive
    Complex Systems-RAID,SAN,NAS
    Comparing IDE and SCSI Drives

    IDE Drives-designed as fast, SATA Drives-attached


    low-cost drives.(ATA standards) with only four wires and a
    with parallel 40-pin/80- smaller power connector
    conductor connector.
    Understanding User Account Control
    SCSI drives -typically offer faster performance and throughput than IDE drives, and SCSI drives can
    support a larger number of drives that can be attached using the same interface.

    68 PINS
    Introducing Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks
    -uses two or more drives in combination to create a fault-tolerant system that protects against
    physical hard drive failure and increases hard drive performance.

    -hardware or software and is usually used with network servers.

    Hot Spare
     When drives need to be fault tolerant, you can combine a hot spare drive with a RAID.

     Then, if a drive fails, the system will automatically grab the hot spare drive to replace the
    failed drive and rebuild or restore the missing data.
    Network Attached Storage and Storage Area
    Networks
    Network attached storage
    (NAS)- file-level data storage
    device that is connected to a
    computer network to provide
    shared drives or folders, usually
    using SMB/CIFS.
    Network Attached Storage and Storage Area
    Networks
    Storage area network (SAN)-
    an architecture used for disk
    arrays, tape libraries, and optical
    jukeboxes to appear as locally
    attached drives on a server.

    To make the system redundant


    against drive failure and to offer
    high performance. SANs also
    usually contain spare drives and
    snapshotting,volume cloning.
    Network Attached Storage and Storage Area
    Networks
    Host bus adapter (HBA)- Logical unit numbers
    connects a host system such as (LUNs)- allow a SAN to
    a computer to a network or break its storage down into
    storage device.
    manageable pieces, which
    ex.
    are then assigned to one or
    SCSI, Fibre Channel, and
    more servers in the SAN
    eSATA devices; however,
    devices for connecting to IDE,
    Ethernet,firewire,fiber channel
    itnerface card
    Fiber Channel(FC)
     a gigabit-speed technology primarily used for storage networking.

     It uses a Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) as its transport protocol, which allows SCSI
    commands to be issued over Fibre Channel.

    Fabric-devices are connected to each other through one or more data path
    iSCSI
     Internet Small Computing System Interface or iSCSI is an Internet Protocol (IP)-based storage
    networking standard for linking data storage facilities.

     Allows llows clients to send SCSI commands over a TCP/IP network using TCP port 3260

     an communicate using Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre, and it can connect a SAN to multiple servers over a
    distance.
     network adaptor must be dedicated to iSCSI
