Review: A robust and stable card that I very highly recommend. Do the windows config tweak herein. - Many people have complained about this card. However, it's absolutely a windows bug that will lock the whole operating system, needing a cold-start. This card is brilliant, and performs really well. The issue is dual disk-cache deadlock if you want to look it up. It's been waiting to bite for 25 years, once nvme cards were invented and coupled to fast NICs like this one. It's very easy to fix... NVMe drive have an onboard DRAM disk cache, so windows operating-system level caching will conflict, and also degrade general write performance quite noticeably, and cause your operating system to completely lock when writing data to disk copied over the NIC, where the data rate exceeds the random write speed. The on-board DRAM is big (over 1GB), and many times faster that windows disk caching, so you really don't need the windows stuff slowing it down. Find your storage device in Windows Device Manager, open Properties, under Write-Caching-policy, disable write-caching-on-this-device. Reboot. TCP flow control will now work correctly, and while the write speed may drop to zero, that's fine and intended - you're just exceeding the random write speed of your storage device when that happens. It's also better to use the "Marvell AQution 10Gbit Network Adapter" drivers directly from the Marvell website rather than the TP-LINK ones. While the same driver is installed, there is extra stuff bundled with the TP-LINK drivers you don't need. After 30 years working in IT, I've not seen a better value or more reliable 10G card in this price bracket. Highly recommended if you do the above.
Review: Plug and play no messing about with settings. - Fantastic buy at knock down price. I bought this as just moved to FTTP at 900mbps speed. Fitted it to my SFF pc and tested the speed compared to me previous on board Ethernet this delivered more than 250mbps more speed than previous and knocks out a whooping 630mbps using Ookla speed test. Really pleased with and highly recommended. Easy to setup as plug and play, downloads updates at lightning speed functionality is good no update drivers necessary with windows 11.

A: There are adapters for mini pcie to pcie express available for around £10-20 but if you are working with small spaces, such as a laptop, this is not going to fit. On a desktop pc with such slots, given that you have the space, it will work.
