Leopard Technical Notes: Storage
Apple storage devices include disk drives and Xserve RAID. Mac OS X manages storage devices using a stack of drivers, each of which supports some aspect of the communication between computer and device. Developers can use the BSD interface and the I/O Kit (Apple's object-oriented driver development framework) to access storage devices and their media at different layers of the stack. Administrators can use Xsan to aggregate networks of storage devices into 64-bit cluster file systems.
