ipolex 10Gb Network Card, 1x SFP+ Port, 10GbE NIC Compare to the Intel X520-DA1, Support Windows Server/Windows/Linux/VMware (Not Support Mac OS, Bypass Mode)

Bought for esxi server 7. discovered and working without any issues

This Intel X520-DA1 82599ES based chip gives excellent performance, and works in an x4 PCIe slot at full 10Gb, even though advertised for x8. (this only applies to the single port model, not enough bandwidth for dual port)Used this in a Qnap NAS and a PC to obtain a 10Gb link which is very fast.- Recommended!

Great product for the price, you must install the intel drivers/software before installing the card. I thought maybe windows 10 would have already had certain drivers installed, but no such luck. Easy to install into PC, make sure it’s in the fastest slot available.

Added this to my pfsense build, plug and play. No driver issues or hacky workarounds required.

No drivers required for me and worked out of the box without any issues in both Linux (elementaryOS) and Windows 10.

Worked immediately with TrueNAS

Common opinion on line is these will work on a QNAP NAS equipped with a PCI-E slot.Sally it doesn't.

It was not compatible with a like-new item. Older than expected. We were not able to use it and needed to purchase another at a much higher cost due to urgent need to install at our community radio station. Which we have to fundraise for. Considering best way to get some money back on this item, so trying to sell it.
