or something similar from the used sellers. There seem to be a decent
variety of cards under $100.
Manufacturers that are good are HPE/DELL/Intel/Broadcom/IBM/Lenovo.
But you do need to do a bit of research on the given cards to see what
the real chipset is. Avoid Emulex/Be2net variants they have "issues".
Intel/Broadcom/Mellanox based cards are good.
This is awesome, thank you very much! I'm still trying to get up to
speed on 10G networking, I genuinely appreciate this advice.
With that two port card, I could get three and just run direct cables
from my desktop to the servers, then a cable between the servers. No
switch required, and it would be fast as heck.
Thanks!
Thomas
