Alternatively you can also look into the Atto Xtend SAN, which runs about $200 for 1 user with volumes discount slashing the.

Studio Network Solutions (SNS) provides a software-based iSCSI initiator called globalSAN that can be downloaded and used free of charge from their site.

iSCSI Overview iSCSI is a block-level protocol that enables the ability to implement a Storage Area Network (SAN) within an Ethernet/IP infrastructure. Because of the latest changes to the macOS security model, globalSAN is not compatible with the default macOS 11 settings. The globalSAN iSCSI Initiator for macOS/OS X enables Mac computers to connect to practically any iSCSI storage target, using standard GbE or 10GbE hardware. When deployed over a Gigabit or 10-Gigabit Ethernet network, an iSCSI-based. The iSCSI protocol requires access to low level system commands, so the implications for globalSAN are even greater. GlobalSAN iSCSI initiator is a network protocol standard that enables the transport of block-level I/O over TCP/IP.
#SNS GLOBALSAN ISCSI INITIATOR FOR MAC OS X#
Since there are no free or reasonably priced iSCSI initiators for OS X (there is an FOSS iSCSI initiator for OS X, but it is not currently developed enough for real use), I am seeking a viable alternative. Louis, MO, Ma Studio Network Solutions (SNS), a premier developer and worldwide solutions provider of optimized audio/video shared storage products, today announced that it has advanced the state of the storage industry by making an iSCSI initiator for Mac OS X available at no cost to the user. Both are prohibitively expensive, at A$119.51 and A$261.85 respectively, at time of writing. I have investigated options for iSCSI, they are GlobalSAN and XtendSAN.
