Firstly, thanks RocketDivision for the iSCSI initiator.

I have a Thecus RAID system, 5 x 1.5TB disks in RAID 5 so useable space about 5.5TB.

Thre reason I am using this iSCSI initiator is that Microsoft has a 2TB limit, you can see the drives but can't initialise if greater than 2TB.. no nice message ofcourse, just an I/O error.

StartPort works fine, however if I reboot vista ultimate the drive doesn't come up automaticcaly. I have it as a bound volume, but have to manually re-connect each time I start-up. Is this a known problem or am I missing something?

Thanks

Matt

Any idea of when this release might be ready?
I would like to purchase this product for my organization but without this feature StarPort will not work for me.

Perfect, could you provide me the contact information to get a price on StarPort? I have not heard back from Artem A. Berman as the quote I originally got was for the wrong product.

When is a version of StarPort with the fix going to be released then to be more specific? My Vista machine still requires me to remount the device after each reboot.
