Review on High-Speed Jeirdus Intel 82599 Chipset X520-DA2 10G PCI-E Ethernet Server Adapter NIC with Dual Port SFP+ for Fast Data Transfer by Antoine Dean

Jeirdus 10G NIC – chipset Intel 82599 X520-DA2 type

This is a clone of Intel X520-DA2 10G network adapter with dual SFP+ ports. It appears in the hardware as an Intel 82599 chipset and worked on my computer and NAS without any additional drivers. Physically, the board looks almost identical to the original X520-DA2, which I also have. The original X520-DA2 cards are becoming increasingly difficult to find or are used by pull. This Jeirdus card is brand new and well packaged with both full and low profile brackets and a driver CD (which I didn't need or checked).
