I've been using Broadcom cards in all our servers and the same model works fine with non-R2 2008 iscsi. Have the latest drivers and installed a known working nic,cable. Very wierd.
Will have to get another model and see if it works.
Thanks

Doah! When I was looking for the latest Broadcom drivers my eyes stopped at the 2008 x64 drivers and did not see the 2008 R2 x64 drivers right below that one.![]()
Acutally, the problem turned out I was trying to access a target with 2 different initiators on 2 servers. All kinds of strangeness on the server occurs when this happens. After I realized my mistake and fixed by using more descriptive target names, its now working correctly. Getting 230 mbps during file copies and loving it.
I would have thought Windows would have generated an error but I guess it has no idea if that target is running some kind of software to allow access from multiple initiators.
