What does the Pro version offer over the regular EN model? The standard ConnectX-3 EN models I bought last March were much cheaper.

Which model do you have? I know that in the qnap I purchased (tvs-1282) I could only use an intel x520 based card, the software won't recognize anything else.
TVS-871. I was thinking for getting the x520 but I would need the modified bracket which no one seems to have in stock.

Does anyone know if this supports QNAP Ts-563? Thanks!

I'm hardly an expert on other models but according to qnap only their cards are supported. The good news is they just re-brand intel cards so you don't have to pay their high prices. I've read threads in which other cards were tried and didn't work so I would not try one that hasn't been validated or you might be out the money. I would look on the qnap forums to see which cards have been working with your model but I would wager you will be stuck with an intel card and probably an x520...
