Found this card, Qlogic FastLinQ 41000 QL41134HLRJ-CK 4x 10Gbe PCIe Gen 3.0 Quad Port 10GBase-T Full Height Network Interface Card , while looking for hard drives.

Seems like it could be worth it being a new card.

Just found this card listed https://harddiskdirect.com/ql41134hlrj-ck-qlogic-network-adapters.html and it appears to be $1.5k. Seems suspicious.

Yes, don't buy them. QLogic was bought by broadcom; there's no drivers for newer systems (win2016+ or rhel 8+), or are very buggy.

// Edit - its not correct, those are not Broadcom, but Marvell.

Thanks, I'm glad i was still on the fence.

QLogic is Marvell, not Broadcom. Drivers and Firmware get updates more or less regularly, last one for 41xxx is from 12/06/22, latest Windows Drivers support Server 2012 - Server 2022
