Faster Ethernet Gets Weird

June 19, 2015 By Stephen 6 Comments

Once upon a time there was Ethernet. Every half decade or so, the industry got together and worked out a faster version. Sometimes they didn't totally agree, but a standard emerged at 10x the speed of the previous version. Throw all that out the window: Faster Ethernet is coming, and it's going to be weird! Although it looks like a simple network Channel, Ethernet is … [Read more...] about Faster Ethernet Gets Weird

Iomega Introduces the StorCenter px12-350r

August 23, 2011 By Stephen Leave a Comment

Iomega surprised exactly no one by announcing an updated 12-drive rack mount storage array today. Featuring "Cloud Edition" software introduced earlier this year, the px12-350r also sports mildly updated hardware specs, though still relies on Intel's "Core2 Duo" CPUs and Gigabit Ethernet. The new device slots in between the desktop px4/px6 line and parent EMC's new VNXe storage … [Read more...] about Iomega Introduces the StorCenter px12-350r

April 17, 2010 By Stephen 8 Comments

What's the difference between 1000BASE-CX, 1000BASE-SX, and 1000BASE-T? In this post, I'm going to tackle this Ethernet network naming convention. Networking Basics Let's get the … [Read more...] about 1000Base-What?

How Did Microsoft and Intel Get 1 Million iSCSI IOPS?

March 19, 2010 By Stephen 3 Comments

Ever since Microsoft and Intel declared that the combination of Windows and Nehalem could deliver over a million iSCSI IOPS, I've been curious about just how they did it. What black magic could push that many I/Os over a single Ethernet connection? And what was on the other end? Now Intel has revealed all in a whitepaper, and the results are surprising! What iSCSI Did Let's … [Read more...] about How Did Microsoft and Intel Get 1 Million iSCSI IOPS?
