I remember looking at ATA over Ethernet back in 2007 but back then it relied on vendor-provided drivers.... I read now that AoE has been merged into the Linux kernel starting w 2.6.11 or thereabouts..., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATA_over_Ethernet My questions are twofold: 1. Of all the drivers for AoE available, anyone here has succesfully used any with Fedora? 2. Hardware: If AOE was ever popular, it seems interest has decreased now, as for the life of me I cant seem to find ANY low cost, single drive SATA to AoE adapter on Amazon.com... Whackypedia mentions: "In 2007 LayerWalker[15] announced the world's first single-chip AoE hardware solution called miniSAN[16] running at both Fast and Gigabit Ethernet grades. The miniSAN product family offers standard AoE server functions plus other management features that targets PC, consumer and SMB markets. Data Fabrics Inc. offers low-cost internal and external GbE AoE enablers as well as desktop and rackmount AoE SAN appliances. " Well http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LayerWalker 's web site is not responding to requests, for starters.... I guess what I'm looking for is a single drive SATA to AoE (Gigabit if possible) "enabler". Ideally it'd also have to cost less than a NAS with its own OS and CPU.... Is there anything out there?
