GLOTRENDS ST7215 10Gb RJ45 Ethernet Network Card with Intel X540 Controller, PCIE 2.1 X8 Interface, Not Support Mac OS

I installed this 10Gb Ethernet adapter into my rack mounted server using the supplied low profile bracket.Installation was very easy and the provided instructions are well written. It's an incredibly fast network card that gives me blinding data transfer speeds - faster than I've ever seen before. Also, the price is fair for this outstanding adapter at less than 60 bucks. Love it!Low Price and Stunning Speed Performance.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! AAA+++

This nic picked up basically out of the box in Windows 11, and I was getting 10Gb line speeds to my QNAP 10Gb switch with no issues, using about a ~6ft cat6 cable. The bottleneck in my setup is mostly HDD array speed to my Synology, but I was pulling about ~6-7Gb/s without any problem. The heatsink on this model (basically a recycled X540-T2 chip) is huge, which should keep it cooler in consumer cases as a lot of the OEM ones are designed for use in high airflow cases. That said, do make sure there is some level of airflow over the heatsink as these chips are known to run really warm.

I Had no issue installing this card. it works as expected.I downloaded the driver for the x540-AT2 directly from Intel.the card does support lower speeds, the driver showing 100mb, 1gb, and 10gb as options.i have connected at 1gb and 10gbI would buy again.

Installation is easy and I'm seeing around 6.5Gb transfer speed. I do wish it was closer to 10 but its still very fast and I think there are other factors that are keeping me from seeing the higher speed. It's still a lot faster than 1Gb.
