July 27, 20214 yr Hello folks, I changed my Mellanox sfp+ for a dual sfp+ (Dell x520-da2), however unraid shows up as one port 😞   is there something I need to do?   Edited July 30, 20214 yr by Dudedawg

July 29, 20214 yr Author does this mean the Dell x520-da2 is not supported, hmmm it is an intel chipset  Â

July 30, 20214 yr Author the modules are now both the intel, and its working now, thanks you folks.  you were right, that one was not the intel, it was the mellanox module, my bad  thanks again for your help.Â

After some research got into this and it's possible to enable unsupported transceivers in Intel X520 -Â https://rymnd.org/blog/2020/unsupported-sfp-intel-x520/Â
September 28, 20223 yr Hi there I also have an X520 dual NIC in my server. I have only one port connected and I am able to see just one of the two 10G ports... I was wondering if this is by design? So if nothing is connected to the NIC port, the driver is just not loaded? Because... then why is this not the case with the internal 1G NICs in my server? Here I have one connected and another one which is not, yet both are identified as "eth0+1"...  A bit strange to me   lspci shows: 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet 10G 2P X520 Adapter (rev 01) 04:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet 10G 2P X520 Adapter (rev 01) and 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) 08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) But I only have three devices eth0, eth1 (1G) and eth2 (10G)... but no eth3  /B Â
