Ethernet is really great, I can't wait for affordable 10Gbps cards - right now the most you can get is 2Gbps (which is still enough to write/read seamlessly to even the fastest hard drives with the right setup).
- wmf 13y ago10G NICs have been around $400 for years; I've given up hope on them ever getting cheaper.
- voltagex_ 13y agoI think most research for the last ~10 years has gone into wireless tech. Maybe that's why the price hasn't changed?
- Wingman4l7 13y agoReminds me of RAM-disk expansion cards; since they're such a specialty item, they are only ever made by a few manufacturers who will always charge an arm and a leg.
- jotm 13y agoI think it's because people didn't really need 10Gb until now. With widespread use of NAS and SSDs in homes and offices, hopefully these adapters will become cheaper.
