Excellent connection to Synology NAS

Since this card supports both 10GB and 25GB and is supported by Synology, I get one 25 Gb connection/s with direct cable connection. This is faster than most 6Gbps host controllers and 12Gbps external connectivity.

Pros
  • Smart Interconnect for x86, Power, ARM and GPU-based compute and storage platform
Cons
  • Not everything fits
