Im trying to switch from standard 1Gbe to 10Gbe (using SFP+ cards and switch) and im looking at the Intel X520 cards as they seem to be a good price and still have recent drivers.
My question is 'What is the difference between all the X520 cards'. Im seeing X520-SR1, X520-DA1, X520-DA2 and the list goes on.
If anyone has a simple explanation (or chart) that would be great. Im going to be using either the 5 or 8 port Mikotik switch and various server/workstations running a combination of pfSense, freeNAS, Win10, Win Server 2016/2019.
From my own investigation it seems that the one i want is the X520-DA1?
Thanks for any help.
