June 7, 201313 yr I ordered a X9SCM-F from Ebay that was DOA and had to be sent back. No I'm ordering from new egg and both X9SCM-IIF and X9SCM-F-O are the same price, is there a prefference? I'm usin a Xeon E3-1240 if that makes a difference. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182773 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182253
June 7, 201313 yr The X9SCM-iiF has two identical nics both are supported by unRAID. The X9SCM-F has two different nics one is the same as the X9SCM-iiF and will work with unRAID. The other nic on the X9SCM-F may work with unRAID (don't know for sure) but does not work with ESXi up to 5.0 at least maybe not 5.1 (without a hack anyway). Personally I would get the X9SCM-iiF but that is just me. Let someone else comment on any other differences - don't think there are any this is the only one I know of.
June 7, 201313 yr Author Awesome! Yes, the NIC was the only difference listed on the spec sheet. I'll go with the iif, thanks!!
June 9, 201313 yr I had to make the same decision earlier this year, although the iiF was more expensive at the time. I don't regret opting for the iiF.
