I don't have a ten GB switch yet so I am using the adapters point-to-point. On Ubuntu 14.10, I setup the adapters just by adding a few lines to the network interfaces file. I used static addresses and used the pointopoint option. I tried to post my config, but Ebay's review validation rejected it. Regardless, these are great adapters!

I received the product on time, but it is not without issues. One of the two 10Gb RJ-45 ports will not 'lock' in an ethernet cable. Furthermore, even with a cable pressed firmly into the one port that will not lock, my system will not detect a connection. Luckily, I only require one working port for my purposes, so the card is still useful. Overall I think the card is a good value, but beware possible faulty ports on your card.

The Intel X540-T2 is still a major flagship card in the world of 10-Gigabit networking and it works unbelievably well. With Out-of-the-box built-in support on Windows 10 & Server 2016. I'm able to get my Hard Drives (12 TB Seagate Ent Capacity SATA) full Read & Write Speeds of between 240-250 MB/s, single disks, JBOD mode. If you have a fast Raid 0, 10, 5, or 6 Array (or SSDs) than you can expect to do much, much better. But for my purposes this is well worth it. I'm getting consistently double gigabit speeds going from my personal desktop to my server which really helps out with large files transfers, almost all of which come from my computer.

I use these in servers all day, they work great in vmware and straight windows/linux. Work great for iSCSI. Make sure you get the one with the authentic hologram, if you don't then you'll probably end up with a knock-off that doesn't work right.
