intel desktop GigE (32 bits) around 380M intel server GigE (64 bits) around 800M - 900M I have used it for core router for 2 years. they are so good Christopher Hilton <chris@vindaloo.com> wrote: I'm about to build a Gigabit backend network for a few machines. This network will provide file and database services to a dedicated set of web application servers. My experience with Gigabit Ethernet leads me to like the Intel Pro/1000 cards which I believe use the em(4) driver in FreeBSD. Is this an appropriate NIC for a server or is there something better?
