I have a bunch of these (8000s actually) for a testbed network. work like a treat... go fanless if you can... I did have some hassles with the onboard via network connection not coping with long vlan tagged packets... Not sure if this is still an issue, but the vlan man page lists compatible devices if this is an issue for you. also you can get PCI doublers... no idea how well they work, but! anyone had experience of them?
