Product Description
Conserve valuable PCI Express (PCIe) server slots while adding multi-port Gigabit Ethernet capability with the Intel PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter. The dedicated input/output (I/O) bandwidth of PCIe ensures priority performance on each port without bus sharingfor Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in Category-5 networks. Additionally, the Intel PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter is designed to provide high performance in multi-processor systems by efficiently balancing network loads across multiple Central Processing Units (CPUs) when used with Receive-Side Scaling from Microsoft or Scalable I/O on Linux.

Well, if you try and pull off standard networking and iSCSI the result is that something has to give. I was having issues with either the files sharing from the diskstation dropping, or the iSCSI drive dropping. I was able to work around it by using the Realtek diagnostic software, which allows one to create virtual network cards, and assigning vlans to the virtual cards/switch, but that's just...fake.
This does is just what the doctor ordered. Two gigabit ports. One for standard network, one for iSCSI, and it seems to perform even better than the Realtek NIC. So, at least with this system, I've disabled the realtek NIC.
I have an identical system that I use as a home-server, and, when I need to, I shift both of those systems into a 2node cluster. Previously, I did it with the realtek diagnostic driver creating a heartbeat, live migration, iscsi, and data networks all to create a hyper-v cluster - it'll be interesting when I need to do this again to see how it goes as I could omit the live-migration network...
Anyway...works great.
So the card itself is nice and sturdy looking, not some wafer think junk. Nice large heatsink on the processor which makes me think that it will have a nice long life. Install as always is simple, standard card here nothing special to talk about.
Ok so performance. I have this in a Ubuntu 17.04 server which is a plex media transcoder slave, so I set these up bonded using BalanceXOR as my ghetto switch does not support 802.3ad so balancexor it is. Setup went great and I show them load balanced both running full 1gig links. Response times as well as over throughput over my single 1gig link has easily doubled (or more) throughput and lowered response times a solid 1ms. I honestly did not think for something like video xcoding that I would see this dramatic a performance increase, but yeah there it is.
As a side note, Ubuntu 17.04 did recognize these right away and no additional drivers were needed to be loaded or anything special. Just add and put them in interfaces.
In my opinion, Intel NICs are the best NICs on the market, being robust, fast, reliable, and they can handle heavy loads and large file-transfers (> 4GB) without getting stuck/hung; something that many other brands have trouble with. If you don't have an Intel NIC, try it yourself - move a 10GB file across your LAN and see if it doesn't hang or greatly slow-down. If you have another brand of NIC, you may be disappointed by the results. For this reason alone, I highly recommend Intel NICs, whether it's this particular card, or some other NIC by Intel. In fact, when I buy motherboards, I always try to find one where the embedded NIC is by Intel, regardless of ESXi or not.
I ended up buying a newer model, also from Intel, which makes good quality network cards.
Great card! Great Price! and Great service from AMTECH.

Ora mi dite xche devo spendere 80€ di più quando posso montare questa sui miei server HP ?
Fa tutto quello che necessita una skeda marcata HP, l'unica cosa che sul mio HP proliant G6 360 ho dovuto smontare la lamina di alluminio perché troppo lunga da inserire nel server HP.
Also a lovely note and message was included from the sender. A nice personal touch :)
Okay cancelled return, the Adapter worked in the third computer I tried. As I confirmed this worked, I dug a bit deeper, be careful of BIOS PCIe allotment's, I had 1PCIe x16, 3 PCIe x1 and a PCIE X4, this was the slot I fitted it to as requires a x4. This x4 is only a x4 when PCIe 2 or 3 are not used, I had a USB 3.0 card in 3, so this disrupted the x4 to x1, so the Pro/1000T Dual server would not function. So after about 1 hour of rebuilding my PC that I wanted this card in, it worked. Windows update installed driver, I ran the latest Intel drivers,LACP team set up with my switch, now have a 2Gbe LAN connection. Just proves my Dell T3400 is the dog, no tricky setting that require 30 minutes of Motherboard Manual reading and only spotted it on the third pass can prove problematic so apologies to all concerned I am now a very happy punter.
