From: Jurgen Kramer To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain Organization: Message-Id: <1040391936.973.14.camel@paragon.slim> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Ximian Evolution 1.2.1 (1.2.1-1) Date: 20 Dec 2002 14:45:36 +0100 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 820 Lines: 29 Hi, I know this is a bit OT but because here are the kernel driver hackers this might be the right place to ask. I am looking for a couple of PCI Gigabit ethernet adapters to play around with SAN/NAS stuff like iSCSI and HyperSCSI and the like. There are variuos adapters around which work with Linux. My choice would be based on the following: - Relatively cheap, around $100/EUR100 - 32 bit/33MHz PCI compatible - Low cpu usage - Busmaster DMA - Opensource Linux driver - zero-copy capable - etc. What card is best? 3Com, Intel or National Semi based?
