Intel NIC - Should I get it?

TrueNAS General
1

Hello,
I am looking to upgrade my NIC on my Truenas machine and was wondering what the community things of these? Which would you recommend? 1 Gbe is fine for me and I would like at least 2 ports and I have a full profile slot open.

  1. [IBM INTEL PRO/1000 PT QUAD PORT PCIe GIGABIT NIC ADAPTER CARD 39Y6138 46Y3512]
  2. [ Intel X540-T2 Dual Port RJ-45 10G Base-T PCIe Network B1X0 Profile Adapter Y2C0]
  3. [ Intel X540-T2 Dual Port RJ-45 10G Base-T PCIe Network Adapter Profile D1P0 P8L0]

The 1G versions are based on the X550 chipset. Worked no problem on my TrueNas for years. Probably at a good price these days.
