I'm building a new NAS for my home network with a X10SDV-7TP8F running FreeNAS.
I picked up a Chelsio T520-SO-CR for my hackintosh/windows machine and it's functioning on both OS of the hackintosh.
However, I don't seem to be able to get 10 GBE performance fully on windows or OSX.
OSX seems to be restricted to 1 GBE to or from the tNAS.
Windows (10-64 bit) I am only getting 1GBE to the NAS, but I am seeing 10GBE speeds copying back to the computer (I set up a ramdisk to make sure I wasn't hitting any limits there under windows, have not tried it with the hackintosh).
I'm using a 10Gtek SFP+ cable, I wasn't certain what was best to get, but it's clearly at least partially working.
I've tried it both with a direct connection to the NAS and through a TP link switch with 10GBE SFP+ ports. It didn't seem to make a difference, but I've not done extensive testing between the two.
Is there something I'm likely to be overlooking? I'm new to the 10GBE world and SFP+ cabling.
