The IOCREST M.2 to 10GbE Adapter - Review and Testing https://nascompares.com/2024/07/19/th...

This video reviews the IOCREST M.2 to 10GbE adapter, a new alternative to PCIe cards for adding 10 Gigabit Ethernet to a system. The adapter utilizes the M.2 slot typically used for storage.

Performance benchmarks on a Windows PC showed mixed results, with some tests achieving full 10GbE speeds and others falling short.

Compatibility testing with various NAS (Network Attached Storage) systems revealed limited success. The adapter only worked consistently with Unraid and TrueNAS (Core & Scale). Other NAS platforms, like Asustor, QNAP, Synology, and TurnKey Linux, had issues with driver incompatibility or complete lack of functionality.

Overall, the video suggests that M.2 to 10GbE adapters are a convenient option for small form factor systems due to their size. However, their performance can be questionable, and NAS compatibility is limited. PCIe cards remain the recommended solution for users prioritizing performance and broader NAS compatibility, although they may require more space.
