In response to your article about using iSCSI to speed things up, I have a question.
I have a SOHO wired network. I presently host a MS Access DB on a drive volume "P:" on one of the computers on the netork (Win XP). The "P:" drive is deidicated to the database. I open and transact with that DB from another computer on the network (Win 7 64-bit).
Now, per your article, is there a way to format the P: drive volume as iSCSI, therefore speeding up the packets of data going to/from the DB?
Secondly, I also have a Qnap TS-469 PRO on the network. (I can transact with DB files that have been backed up to the Qnap with no problem) Would it be advantageous to create an iSCSI volume on the Qnap and host the DB from there?
Or, does iSCSI make any difference at all in this particular application?
Thanks.
