Im new to unraid, and I am having issues with my 10G NIC. It is generating firmware errors in the logs and I am not sure how to fix the issue. The error is:

Here is what I am looking at. You have the same issue as mine, your eth1 interface is down. I dont know how to change that to up. I went into the ssh and put in 

 

ifconfig -eth1 up

 

it didnt give me a error code but if i do a lshw command it states the ports are disabled. if i plug a cable into the disabled prots it spits out a firmware issue in the logs as well.

This did not help and i had to remove the 10G NIC. It was causing issues with even the onboard NIC. Once removed i havent had any issues with the onboard NIC. But that is only 1 gigabit. I havent found anything to get this card to work, does anyone have a suggestion for a card that would work?

Hi T_matz,

It is really strange. I have one of these Intel X540-AT2 (rev 01). It is working fine, I really like about this card is that it has two controller.

But I'm not getting more than 235mbps, do anyone have a suggestion to get beet better performance out of this config? my expatiation around 900 to 1000mbps. 

This is my test server config Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-4650 0 @ 2.70GH,  DDR 32GB ECC, Intel X540-AT2 (rev 01) 10G, Seagate ST12000NM002G 12 TB SAS x12, Parity 2x12TB, Cache 2x1TB SSD.
