Using SAN Network Storage with NXP Embedded Boards

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working on a project using an NXP i.MX embedded board running a Linux-based OS. As part of the system, I want to integrate SAN network storage to manage large amounts of data efficiently, such as logging sensor data and storing system backups. Since embedded boards often have limited onboard storage, network-attached SAN seems like a practical solution.

I’m looking for advice and shared experiences from the community regarding:

  • How to set up SAN storage with an embedded Linux system
  • Configuration tips for mounting SAN storage automatically at boot
  • Performance optimization strategies for read/write operations
  • Ensuring reliability and stability, especially after power cycles or network interruptions

If anyone has successfully implemented SAN storage on NXP boards or similar embedded platforms, I would greatly appreciate any guidance, example configurations, or lessons learned.

Thanks in advance for your input!
