Where can I find a NBD Server (and also a Client)
that I can use in windows 10?
(preferably FOSS source code for inspect/change/compile/...)
Been looking for a while on the internet
and seems that no one overcome this task...

1Probably easier to run it in a virtual/container. – Greg Askew Oct 29 '20 at 20:44

Yep... but it is a huge annoyance--- native windows binaries would be a charm... – ZEE Oct 30 '20 at 00:08

1[nbdkit has a Windows port](https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2020/08/20/nbdkit-now-ported-to-windows/) now and [there are binaries here](http://oirase.annexia.org/nbdkit/). – Rich Apr 17 '21 at 20:31

You can use Starwind vsan for block device over iSCSI. No special client is required, default built-in MS iSCSI Initiator can be used.

Not quite what I'm looking for,,, a lean+and+mean remote block device for use even in WinPE... I would prefer not to use a 'truck' to transport just one brick!!! – ZEE Nov 10 '20 at 20:28

being iSCSI will it only export entire disks or can it export single partitions? – Sam Liddicott May 28 '21 at 12:13

1it can export physical disk as RAW device or virtual disk located on partition – batistuta09 May 29 '21 at 11:59
