    Works great for me!
    This is for the 2.5G nic. Had to get this because I went small form factor for my PC build, my x570 crosshair 8 impact only came with gigabit lan, and I often do transfers over the network to my NAS/Plex server. Gig isn't the worst thing ever but I know my 3.5" HDDs can transfer well over 200MB/s and gigabit maxes at around 112MB/s.Finally decided to upgrade and with the existing wiring only being cat5e in my house I tried 2.5G first. It works great as you can see from the pic, transfers at over 2.5 gig. Wish my board had 2.5g or 5g built in, should have at it's price. But this was a nice alternative.Installation: do yourself a favor and download and install 7-zip before plugging this in if you don't already have 7-zip. Winrar wouldn't work for me. Once you plug this in it has a tiny amount of onboard storage that shows up as a flash drive, has the drivers on it. Quick install and you're done. Easy.
