Well, sure. I guess I should keep reminding people about my location. Online services like storage don't work because of the price we'd have to pay for a connection. Making the server and storage both online (preferably in the same data center) is just so much easier.
Like I already told you (PM/chat): Provide more info. What kind of storage? Some consumer grade NAS? Huawei? EMC? NetApp? vSAN? We need to know the brand and model, everything else is just wild guessing on our side.
