Synology iSCSI Setup - Performance - Chris Titus Tech This video goes over iSCSI Setup on a Synology 1019+ and connecting the new iSCSI target/lun to the XCP-ng Hypervisor and running VMs through it James: Great video and really helpful but have you got any advice on how to use a Synology iSCSI in an XCP-ng Pool. I cam only get one host to connect to the Target/LUN and it cannot repair itself the connections for the other hosts? I have enabled multiple connections. NFS is working but thought iSCSI would be more secure and potentially faster. Any advice or ideas would be amazing.

TWO DECADES ago we had 15k RPM spinny drives that had to be on SCIS
cause IDE/ATA wasnt fast enough to keep o up with the drives. But since Sata went mainstream, that scsi dependency of the 15k drives ended... yet we DONT see 15k drives, nor even 10k.. the spinnys are still in the 7200 stone age. Why didnt we see 15k drives explode in market share -2005 ?

I-m sure you were NOT using SMB to host the VM files!!
Learn your terms correctly: You were using NFS! (If you did use SMB, it shows your expertise).
And, iSCSI will ALWAYS be faster than NFS/SMB for VMs due to how each handles sync writes.
I feel for all the people that follow IT people that do not master their field.

You don-t seem to understand MC/S.
An I SCSI Target should only be connected to ONE system as the access is at the BLOCK level and you will corrupt the LUN if being accessed by more than 1 system.
If you need multiple systems to access the same iSCSI LUN, use NFS.

ISCSI drives shows up as an internal drive on the client. You can format and install software on it. You can install an operating system and boot it on an ISCSI drive. A network share shows up as a network drive and you can't format or boot from it.

I just wish Synology used much better CPU's. Why no option for a Core i3? Yes more expensive, but if you are willing to pay for it, then the more powerful CPU's should be there.

Is iscsi a good option to play games through the network ? (Which recquires a lot of read/writes cycles)
for example if the internal hardrives of the pc are already full ?

I recall a young friend who said skuzki which I was not knowing. he was an apple kid. How can I get to the underlying code? I have the crazy windows 10

Chris, you seem to have a lack of entropy. Haveged could help, the Archwiki gives proper instructions (on how to check if you need it).
