I've just seen a storage server that uses SCSI over IP. The reasoning is that gigabit ethernet is just as fast as fibrechannel, and much more standard. They have drivers for Linux and NT, and have announced that a driver will be released for FreeBSD in early 2001? Apparently the driver simply probes the LAN for SCSI devices and attaches each discovered storage server as a LUN. For some reason the name of this product escapes me.
