That was my own reaction too - "this sounds like iSCSI".
iSCSI is actually over ethernet
It is? I thought it was over IP (which may or may not
be, in turn,
carried over Ethernet). Its wikipedia page thinks so, FWTMBW.
and done at the OS layer.
Usually but not necessarily. There's no reason something couldn't be
built which looks like an ordinary SCSI card to the host but speaks
iSCSI out its other side; indeed, I'd be surprised if nothing of the
sort existed yet, though configuration may be a bit interesting.
