I understand it may take a while, if there is indeed some problem with that new firmware. It's only an observation, nothing deterministic, but on my R815 having a second(one is already on-board) NIC would make system spit "PCI Fatal error" regarding that second card, although system would seemingly continue to work without any network interruption. This would happen with both Linux & Windows. This would happen more likely when I take ports down & up and either by software or manually unplugging cables. To solidly investigate it may take Dell tech a wile, I'd wish not too long one. L.
