I'm in the process of building a new SAN for my vmware lab.
My new storage server consists of :
Chenbro RM23612 12-Bay Chassis
Supermicro X8DT6-F Motherboard with the onboard LSI 2008 flashed to IT Mode.
I want to have the fastest connection to my esxi servers using DAS.
I've seen a lot of people mention the HP SAS Expander card, but that looks like it only has a single das connection.
I am looking to connect two servers to the SAN. Are there any dual DAS expanders out there?
My other option was to just use a dual port fibre channel card using PTP.
My current storage server is just iSCSI over Ethernet. I've hit a bottleneck over Ethernet and need to move into direct attached.
Is there any recommendations I should look into?
