Excellent card
- Pros: This is an awesome server card. I'm running it on a server 2008 R2 DC/file server and I can download from it at a sustained 90MB/s and not notice any network slowdown (in the form of DNS requests) from other stations. Also, the CPU usage is minimal when transferring data at those speeds.
- Cons: A little pricey, but it's A) Intel and B) has the word "server" in its title. If you want fast, use the MB's built in port(s). If you want screaming fast, get this.
- Other Thoughts: I'm going to get another one for the other server I'm running. I haven't been able to enable teaming on the card yet, but I'm going to tackle that soon and maybe I'll report back after :)
- Pros: Installed without a hitch. Works great in (Open)Solaris. Setup of LCAP was as simple as enabling it on the switch and then using dladm to create an aggregate link. I suspect the setup would be just as easy on other platforms. Transfered a little over a TB so far, not a single hiccup.
- Cons: Little pricy for a dual interface NIC.
- Other Thoughts: Does include a half-height mounting bracket for low profile cases.
Does NIC teaming on Windows 7
- Pros: The Intel driver allows you to setup NIC teaming (802.3ad). It even allows for teaming with other adaptors with reduced functionality, e.g. no jumbo frames and no receive side scaling.
I teamed it up with the Realtek 81xx that was on the motherboard in Dynamic Link Aggregation under windows 7.
- Cons: A little pricy, but still the easiest way of getting more than 1Gbps network
- Other Thoughts: Teaming may also be known as bonding or link aggregation (LACP).
Make sure your switch supports 802.3ad.
