    Intel x710-DA2 Running not able to run at PCIE 3.0 x2 speed

    UPDATE: I opened a support ticket with Intel and they were able to confirm that the x710-DA2 does not support x2 speed. Only x1, x4, or x8. I have 10gb networking in my desktop and recently upgraded from an Intel x520-DA2 to an Intel x710-DA2 (Dell OEM original fully updated firmware). I did...

    EU (SOLD) >> 3.2TB - Fusion ioMemory™ / Sandisk SX350 PCIe (very low usage)

    I'm selling a 3.2TB barely used Sandisk SX350. Current vsl-iomemory4 drivers are available from Snuf's GitHub repository. Got it running in Debian (Proxmox), Gentoo and even Arch Linux. The cards are traded on eBay for >500EUR even with high usage. Due to its very low usage, I'm asking for 399...

    Weird PCIe Issue

    Not sure where this fits so I'm putting it here. I have a Tyan s7012 that has been great so far except for this one bizarre issue I'm having.

    X550-T1 in PCIe 2.0 x4: Does it run at 10 GbE?

    The Intel X550-T1 specification states it uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 slot, however in my new PC (Ryzen 2700X), I'd like to use it in the PCIe 2.0 x4 slot if possible. The NIC should be backwards compatible with earlier revisions of PCIe. PCIe 3.0 x4: 3.94 GB/s - 31.52 Gb/s PCIe 2.0 x4: 2 GB/s - 16...

    Recommended HBA to add SATA3 to a Supermicro X8DTL-iF MB (for SSDs)

    I would like to add SATA3 to a X8DTL-iF MB that unfortunately only supports PCIe 2, and has no controller for SATA3. The reason is leveraging SSDs. I might consider ditching the MB but I keep it because the two Westmere CPUs in it were bought at retail prices years back, and they are perfectly...

    Best 2 x 10G performance on older system: 2 x single vs 1 x dual-port card?

    Hi all I am wanting to add 2 x 10G ports to my workstation and server. My question is: is there any potential difference, positive or negative, between doing this via one dual-port card (in my case, X520-DA2) versus 2 x single-port card (X520-DA1.) The cards will go in PCIE 2.0 x8 slots, so...
