With the price continuously decreasing on 10Gbe components, it is slowly becoming an option to install a 10Gbe network in your home without spending a fortune.  With prices of switches coming down, and motherboard and NAS manufactures now including 10Gbe, near SSD speeds are now possible across your network.  In this video, I do a quick comparison between 3 different cards to see if there are any differences in performance.

 

UPDATE:  As stated in the video, I could not get the Gigabyte to work.  I have received a replacement card and it still will not detect a network or install correctly.  I guess Gigabyte still has work to do on 10Gbe.
