Good FreeBSD Supported Gigabit Ethernet Card?

[Oliver Hansen]

I'm looking to eventually upgrade my home network to all gigabit so I'm 
going to start by purchasing a few NICs for some old servers I just 
received. I know there are quite a few supported by FreeBSD6 which I found 
( http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/hardware-i386.html#ETHERNET ) but 
I'm wondering if there is any real benefit in buying a $40 or $50 NIC 
like the Netgear GA311 or just get a $20 NIC like the D-Link DFE-530TX+. 
The use will probably be a firewall, proxy, file server, and DVR.
