Review: Die beiden bestellten Karten entsprechen der Abbildung (kein Lüfter) und wurden von QNAP TS-1277 und vom Thecus N10850 ohne Probleme sofort erkannt. Review: Compré dos de estas tarjetas cuando costaban 180€/unidad. Las pruebas que he hecho son satisfactorias usando SMB 3 y RAM disks NTFS: - 1.15 GB/s por un único cable cat 6 - 1.46 GB/s por dos cables cat 6 (Multichannel) Cabe destacar que ofrecen buena estabilidad en el throughput durante toda la conexión. [Por confirmar] Buscando benchmarks por internet me he encontrado que post que afirmaban que al parecer el cuello de botella de esta NIC está dentro de su arquitectura interna de PCIe o en el propio controlador alcanzando un máximo de 1.48 GB/s. Queda descartado pues que sea la CPU / PCIe dado que usa x8 lanes a PCIe 2.1 [32gbps = 4GBps] teniendo de sobra para establecer dos conexiones de 10gbps y en ningún caso la CPU usada (i7 5930K) superó el 17% de consumo. ## Features - Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X540-t2 - Pci Express X8 - 2 Port - 10gbase-t - Internal - Low-profile, Full-height - Retail - Rohs Compliance - Intel Corp.
