The Sun StorageTek NAS Gateway functions like a diskless file server with unlimited storage. It’s different than its siblings, the Sun StorageTek 5320/5220 NAS Appliances, which contain the file sharing protocol for access, the file system for storage, and the disks themselves. This NAS gateway has the file sharing protocol and the file system, but not the disks. The front end of the NAS gateway connects to the LAN over Ethernet. The back end connects to a RAID array via Fibre Channel, or to a Fibre Channel switch, in which case the NAS gateway becomes a front end to a storage area network (SAN).
