Today only, this TP-Link 10Gbps network card is just $60
Get the speeds you need
A limited-time deal on Amazon brings the TP-Link 10Gbps PCIe network card down to $60, a 39% discount off its usual price. This upgrade can significantly improve file transfers between a PC and a NAS when using a standard Gigabit connection, particularly when fast SSDs are not being fully utilized on the network. The TP-Link TX401 supports up to 10 Gbps over 10GBase-T, which is about ten times faster than typical Gigabit adapters.
The card uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 slot and features a single RJ45 port, ensuring backward compatibility with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet. It automatically adapts to slower connections, allowing for seamless integration with older Gigabit switches. Compatible with Windows OSes and Linux, the TX401 is not supported by macOS. The device measures 120.8 by 98.2 by 21.5mm and operates effectively at temperatures ranging from 0-40°C and humidity levels of 0-90%.
However, there are a few considerations before purchasing the TP-Link TX401. Users must update drivers after OS updates, and both ends of a link must support the required speed for optimal performance. This card is most beneficial if you have a NAS, switch, or second PC capable of handling Gigabit speeds. If your PC's primary use involves browsing and streaming, the added speed might not be necessary, resulting in wasted investment.
At $60, Amazon's deal on the TP-Link 10Gbps network card is a practical choice for those requiring enhanced bandwidth.
