Intel Network Adaptor - Buy Online?

Recommended Posts


You do realize that Network Adapter is generic for 'something connector/buss to something-else connector/buss'?

Can you be a little more specific on the type of interface? Specs?

edit: ...and here's a generic google search result on Thailand Intel Network Adapter for an online website that displays Intel Network Adapters and who's contact information includes Bangkok, Thailand.

I know, I know, you're looking for something less random where someone has a good history with the Thai-based vendor. For that, they probably still need more specific details of what you're looking for.

Thanks for the answers.

The reason I want Intel is that it is a Server 2008R2 box running several VM's on Hyper-V. I may set up NIC teaming and most of what I read strongly recommends Intel cards. I've never done this before and think it will already be challenging enough for me without risking problems with possibly incompatible NIC's.

A good range but it's difficult to tell where they're going to ship from. Singapore maybe?

For the intensive server applications definitely go for Intel. If you want teaming then I will recommend buying dual-port (or even quad-port) Intel card, also available in Bangkok.

I hadn't thought of that. Good advice especially since I think the MB may be running out of PCIe slots.

Don't see those on the site you suggested though. Guess I will have to run the gauntlet at Pantip.

Cheers.
