Trying to find a dual-port PCI half-height NIC

BarryG
Hi, I need to get a couple of NICs for a SFF PC (Dell Optiplex GX620 with the SFF case)...

It looks like a PCI-X NIC will probably not fit in the case, so that rules out the Intel PRO NICs, and I'm not having much luck on Google, Newegg, ...

So, I need to find something that is:

1. compatible with ASG v7.5 (and hopefully v8)

2. Half-Height PCI (not PCI-X as too long)

3. easy to find in US with efficient shipping (I need it by 3/10)

Any recommendations?

Thanks,
Barry

    Hey Barry,

    If you can suffer using up two PCI slots, Intel's Pro 1000 GT Adapters might fit your bill. They're rock solid, low profile, and well supported in Astaro. Just be sure your vendor specifies the version with the low profile bracket. [;)]

    You might be better off trying to find a replacement motherboard with dual-nics built-in.


    Unfortunately, this is just for a quick-fix; I need a system with 4 NICs I can take on an airplane so I can limit downtime while rebuilding our old HP with a newer version of Astaro.
    I have an old PIII with 4 NICs, but it is quite bulky and heavy.

    Thanks,
    Barry
