  • Alternative to iSCSI on MacOS

    This has been the way it's been done for years but with the latest OS upgrades, mainly Catalina and BigSur, https://github.com/iscsi-osx/iSCSIInitiator has been facing a lot of issues since it's barely maintained and hasn't been updated in 2 years now. My question is, is there an alternative for using iSCSI entirely to mount those homes onto the Macs or does anyone know of a different iSCSI initiator?
