Does anyone know if Windows 2008 can act as an iSCSI target? I know this was

previously restricted to Windows Storage Server, but I don't know whether MS

have seen fit to include this in 2008.

 

TIA

No... And it's still for OEMs only and nearly ~$3K if purchased as an

option. DataCore's SANmelody

costs less with more features and you can easily get separate hardware-

based iSCSI solution for nearly

the same money. MS guys are VERY optimistic :-)

 

But why do you need it? There are free iSCSI targets on the market.

And some (like StarWind

from Rocket Division Software) even work :-)
