Thanks for that buddy, symm an idea i had would be to mount the iscsi drive on a windows 2003 or 2008 server as a 1tb (or more) drive and put the users home folders on that drive then point our dfs to the shares on the drive, would this be a problm doing things this way any performance issues i'm going to use gigabit from server to dss units or should i create several smaller iscsi drives for different user groups and mount them as drives?

I like the idea of using iscsi and the failover/backup functions it has (failover not available yet for nas yet).
