   Error correction can be implemented in any layer of protocol. Though most of   
   current protocol implementations only have error detection, rather than   
   error correction. Error correction requires more computing time, and won't   
   help much in most cases.

   It can be transparent. Just like iSCSI or NAS.   
      
   Serial port is a data transporter. Disk is a data container. Those are two   
   completely different thing.
