BESR 2010 SRD restoring to an ISCSI connected device.

Is there a way that the BESR 2010 SRD (SP2) can restore to an ISCSI connected device?

I need to restore a server that has two drives, the c drive is the operating system and the d drive contains the data. I am trying to restore the c drive to a HP blade server and the d drive to NAS device connected via ISCSI.

The SRD only see's the drive from the Blade server and not the NAS device. Is there anyway that this can be done with BESR 2010?

If you want to avoid trying to get the drivers loaded into the recovery environment, you can restore the C:\ drive only, boot the system up into Windows, configure your iSCSI NAS drive from there, then use the BESR recovery wizard from within Windows to restore the data volume.

If you need to restore all volumes at the same time, you will need to locate the Windows 2008 drivers for your iSCSI controller and load those from within the recovery environment. If seeing attached volumes is as simple as loading the right drivers for that controller, this should do the trick.
