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

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

I can't find anything Barry. The problem with half-height (low profile) cards is that they tend to be longer. The chips and traces have to go somewhere.

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
