Just an FYI, my board had one of the 10gbe ports go bad a month ago, I've been in an RMA process with ASRock.
I was told that because of supply issues they have a different revision of the board with BCM57416 controller instead of the original Intel X550's. I was told everything else is the same.
They have a new page for the BCM version:
ASRock Rack > ROMED8-2T/BCM
It requires different BIOS/BMC.
I'm still waiting on ASRock to ship me the replacement.
It's nice of them to contact me and ask whether I'd like the BCM revision instead of the Intel.
Does anyone have an input regarding the BCM57416 10gbe controller? Not must information available out there...
