I have used AoE extensively for the last 5 years. You want switches with hardware flow control and jumbo packets. Those are the biggies. As pointed out Intel NICs are great but most anything halfway decent should work. > Also which switches for the AoE storage network do you recommend? I have always used ProCurve j9021A switches. I have a ton of them doing AoE. They work great. What are you using for AoE targets? If you are buying Coraid gear they should be able to help you with all of this. -- Tracy Reed
