A while ago, I wrote an article about building an Exchange solution using iSCSI technology for the storage subsystem: Storage Design - Have You Considered iSCSI?

In case you don’t know, Internet SCSI (iSCSI) is an official standard that allows the use of the SCSI protocol over TCP/IP networks. Although you can use dedicated iSCSI hardware, the initiator (the client part) can be in the form of software, allowing you to use a standard Ethernet network adapter.

Microsoft provides its own initiator software which has been recently updated to version 2.03: Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator Version 2.03.
