* NFS share from HongKong
* iSCSI network connection to HongKong
===What results are we interested in?===
There are 3 main performance stats that we are concerned about when rating storage performance.
3. Access: Time required for a computer to process data from the processor and then retrieve the required data from a storage medium.
===Cost===
Since NFS and iSCSI are both network storage solutions they have no cost in themselves, but rely on network storage on a remote server. This price is simply the cost of the drives that will be installed in the remote storage server. A USB connected PATA or SATA drive requires both a hard drive and a PATA/SATA to USB interface such as an external drive enclosure.
