Review on StarTech PCI Express Gigabit Network Adapter by Mack Douglas

Fast, stable, inexpensive. Latency is not as good as the Intel X540-T2, but very close. The transmission speed is the same or slightly better than Intel. Unless negligible response time is more important than transfer speed in your environment, I would choose this card over the more expensive Intel, however Intel has 2 ports. Both Intel and Startech were vastly superior to the QNap cards in every way.
