Re: C3000 Blade Connecting to Storage
its depend which type of disk do you like to use, if the storage should be redudant, or just only a simple storage, or you like to share it to another servers ....., and also how many servers will be connected.
for simpel SAN, you need a SAN switch + Storage and on the Blade server FC card
check this link from HP.

you can use also storages form EMC / HITACHI.....

Re: C3000 Blade Connecting to Storage
iSCSI is only via network.

Re: C3000 Blade Connecting to Storage
I have a c3000 blade enclosure running BL460C blades on one of the blades i am running HYPER V virtulisation. I also have the HP DL380G5 with the 146 disks in.
The blade connects to this by ISCSI the images for the hyper v machine reside on the DL380 and it is all quite slow, so i wanted to speed up communication between the blade and the DL380.
