Review: Works great on Windows 11 Pro - This card works well with Windows 11 Pro, I did have to download the drivers from the Dell Site, not too difficult to find, ran the driver installer and good to go. Oh, I had to remove the old fiber card and drivers first, or they cause issues with the new card - Windows 11 equivalent to the old Blu screen. The windows 11 update (and updates), sure causes a lot of issues. Thinking about buying a new PC and moving to Linux, it's had many different distributions with changes since I started using Linux in the mid 80's but once configured has always been stable.
Review: PCIE compatibility - Take note that this product only works with x8 pcie x4 won't work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No win home drivers, use server ed binary
*by K***E on April 12, 2022*

Working at 10gig full duplex in my win 10 home pc, Working at 10gig full duplex in my truenas box I could not locate win 10 drivers, So i unpacked the installer from win server edition, and used the binary to install directly, It totally works. I get an occasional network drop and have to reboot both machines, So 4 start instead of 5
