How a SAN and a NAS storage is different from each other
SAN or storage area network is a single bulky localized block type storage unit developed only for file storing. NAS or Network Attached Storage is a centralized network of Server storage for Data storing only. Nas is fully dependent on Ethernet and SAN supports Ethernet and fiber channels. SAN has its focus mainly on hi-performance and lower latency. NAS on the other hand has focused on the manageability, scalability, ease of use, and a lower TCO(Total Cost of Ownership) count. NAS controllers partition the system and use common FTP, SMB, and CFS protocols. Where the SAN is normally a one partition drive. NAS servers are similar to a windows server or LINUX server in terms of functionality but these servers have one single purpose. And that is to store DATA. SAN on the other hand relies on network commands for the data transfer.

The second common protocol is the internet Small Computer System Interface or iSCSI. It encapsulates SCSI with an FC frame with Ethernet Datagram. The third type of Protocol is Fiber Channel over Ethernet or FCoE. it is only used in nearly 5% of the total SAN market. Another lesser-known protocol is the FC-NVME; it uses PCI-Bus NVME parallel storage ques.
