10Gtek 10Gb PCI-E NIC Network Card, Dual Copper RJ45 Port, with Intel X540 Controller, PCI Express Ethernet LAN Adapter Support Windows Server/Windows/Linux/ESX, Compare to Intel X540-T2

Works well had to hunt for a driver but other than that it works well.

Plug and play with VMware ESX

There are a few different adapters out there using SFTP+ or Ethernet ports and all at varying prices. This seems to be the best value for money overall. Plug and play with my TrueNAS box and Swtich with 10Gbps port.Now can constantly have upto 10 1gbps upload/download on my local network.

Stuck one each in a Windows 10 workstation, a Windows 2016 Server and a Qnap NAS (TVS-1271 if anyone’s interested).Works straight away. No drivers required to be installed. Very decent performance gain over 1Gb.

These cards are not officially supported in Windows 11, there is a work-a-round that installed the windows 10 drivers, these can cause issues in windows 11 if you have secured your systems. The chip appears to be EOL at Intel.The cards look well built and arrived in no fuss packaging but they don't support 5GB or 2.5GB speeds, which I missed, so based on these two elements, am returning.

It was awesome in my Synology DS1817+ NAS until it wasn't!Plug and play dual 10Gbe! The model I received was a fan version, not passive as advertised.I was super happy with this and it's only a fraction of the price of the Synology OEM model. Worked perfectly straight out of the box. Just plug and play with the Intel 540 chip.Sadly, after less than a month the fan is knackered.Have returned and purchased a passive model.10Gb Dual LAN Base-T PCI-e Network Card, Intel X540 Controller, NICGIGA 10Gbps Ethernet Adapter, 2 * 10Gbe RJ45 Port ， 10G NIC Card, Support Windows/Windows Server/Linux/Vmware/ESX

Would reccomend

I can bond the ports in Linux and after some tweaking achieve 19Gbps throughput, awesome!

Top Karte. Hab sie in einer Lenovo ThinkStation und einem Dell Precision 3650. Volle Geschwindigkeit und 100% kompatibel mit den Intel Treibern

Elle tient ses promesses, tant au niveau des débits annoncés que de la chauffe qui n'est pas trop importante.Dans un serveur OpenSense, elle se comporte à merveille.

Buona, regge i 10GB su entrambe le porte individualmente. Non ho provato ad usarle insieme. Per il resto molto essenziale sia negli ausili per il montaggio e con drivers cinesi molto basilari.

Intel stopped the support to Intel X540 Controller as of version 28.x. Current version 30.5 has not direct support for the controller but you can still get it work with some help form ChatGpt.With a lot of acrobatic you will get the NIC but the product is not supported.

Es la tarjeta x540_T" con dos puertos 10GBase-T. Hay otra tarjeta 10G en este artículo pero el PCI express es 4x yo necesitaba máxima velocidad y he pillado esta que es 8x. El acabado es muy bueno, la he conectado a un servidor de gama alta para conectividad iSCSI 10gbits , El sistema me la ha reconocido bien en un esxi 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 y 6.7. La tarjeta se identifica como una tarjeta Intel Corporation Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X540-T2, que es el chipset ya veterano que correctamente anuncia 10Gtek. Por tanto sospecho que es compatible con casi cualquier sistema que tenga PCI express 8x.La he configurado con Jumbo frame y funciona perfectamente. Trae un chapita para instalarla en ranuras de media altura para sustituir a la chapita larga mediante los tipicos 2 tornillos.He hecho trabajar la tarjeta unos pocos días en iSCSI (con pequeño switch Netgear 10GB) y consigo transferencias sostenidas de más de 400 megabytes por segundo. Por 200 y pico euros es un chollo, en mi opinión.La conclusión: de momento va muy bien y la volvería a comprar.
