1GBit Cards

[Brian D. Haymore]

We have a few syskonnect cards and they work very very well.  A bit more
expensive then others but they have proven to be rock solid for us.  We
even have the dual port cards that run in failover mode perfectly.  I
don't know much about the others to really comment on them.
