December 6, 20232 yr Hi, just wanted to share that I got 10Gb Ethernet on my unraid server using a PCIE gen 4 x1. My system is based on: - ASRock X670E Pro RS - AMD Ryzen 9 7900 I picked this motherboard as it has 5 nvme that I am using 4 of them (gen4 and gen5) to run an nvme based pool on top of HDD pools. But this motherboard has only 1 pcie x16 gen5 and 2 pcie x1 gen 4. the x1 are open ended. I used this card that I bought from the US which gen 4 compatible and it is able to give close to 10gbe. see below Sharing if useful to anybody in similar situation Card: https://www.owc.com/solutions/10g-ethernet-pcie-network-adapter Bought from: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1709735-REG/owc_owcpcie10gb_10g_ethernet_pcie_network.html Speedtest with the new card: showing two last records with 2.5gbe and the new 10gbe.
