The Cheapest Way to Run Hyper-V!
StarWind Native SAN for Hyper-V is the best option for you if you want to take full advantage of Live Migration and High Availability but don´t want the limitations of a proprietary hardware SAN. StarWind Native SAN for Hyper-V allows building a reliable, fast and easy-to-manage shared storage within the Hyper-V Virtual Server infrastructure, which makes this solution affordable for SMB and Mid-Tier Enterprise business and smaller government offices.
You need only two Hyper-V hosts to run a highly available storage cluster. StarWind requires 1/2 of the typical server and network infrastructure. StarWind operates inside the parent partition

StarWind 5.6 iSCSI SAN Free Edition
StarWind SAN software turns any industry-standard 64-bit or 32-bit Windows server into a fail-safe, fault-tolerant, high availability SAN.
StarWind HA technology permits applications to have non-disruptive, continuous access to storage in the event of failure.
Traditional, legacy High Availability SAN products have always been expensive and complicated. This has been a roadblock for small and midsize companies who are in the process of deploying VMware vSphere,
Microsoft Hyper-V and other server applications that need to be configured as Windows server clusters.
With Active-Active High Availability architecture, the new StarWind helps you build a high availability
storage server that keeps your data continuously available and accessible, offering you enterprise-class reliability and high availability without the related high price and complexity of proprietary,
legacy vendor solutions. The many features of StarWind are packaged into several editions to match the needs of any organization. Each of the StarWind editions improves application and data availability,
protects data, and simplifies storage operations. Additionally, StarWind uses the iSCSI storage protocol so your centralized, networked storage can be configured on your existing IP or Ethernet network
without any complexities, allowing you to build and configure a SAN in under 30 minutes.
StarWind licenses are based on the USABLE Disk Space (TBs) giving you more for your money!
