iSCSI is a network storage technology designed to provide an economical solution over a TCP/IP Network. This paper presents a new iSCSI design with multiple TCP/IP connections. The prototype is developed and experiments are conducted for performance evaluation on Gigabit Ethernet (GE). Test results show that the new iSCSI design improves performance 20%~60 % compared with normal iSCSI architecture. Throughput can reach 107MB/s for big I/O and I/O rate can reach 15000 IOPS for small I/O. 1.
