I'll have to check a few of my systems when I arrive home to double check the 
part number. The chipsets on the Sun cards tend to be either Intel or DEC 
based. pfSense/FreeBSD shows the interface names as hme0-3. I can only assume 
hme stands for "Happy Meal Ethernet"... odd naming. I'll let you know about the 
part number.

Tim, 

I have been looking for a way to add a good quad nic card into pfsense as well. 
Can you or anyone else confirm using the Sun Quad 10/100 with part number 
501-5406 with pfsense? 

Thanks!

I've been using Sun Quad Fast Ethernet 10/100 cards for a while now. They work 
perfectly and can be found extremely cheap on eBay most of the time. I picked 
up a few about a month ago for about $15 each including shipping.
