I'd stay away from anything that's for less on Ebay, as there's a good chance it may be stolen testing hardware that was supposed to have been ground up and likely not very stable. <br /><br />I touch basically every product the OEMs make, currently work on Intel's Network Adapter Validation team, so I've worked with just about every OEM product out there. <br /><br />Our lab either owns one or two of it, or we have the OEM send us one or two on "loan" until the hardware is too old to be of any use (FW updates usually render some of the earlier hardware inert as the parts are not production coded).<br /><br />Big Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11972364897169819241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809406582739580270.post-10203154017475703742013-12-03T18:35:49.470-06:002013-12-03T18:35:49.470-06:00Matt - Do you know where I can get an X5690 withou...Matt - Do you know where I can get an X5690 without getting bent over for it?Erik's RV Blog https://www.blogger.com/profile/17149039572885361450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809406582739580270.post-29745826486989830892013-12-03T17:49:05.217-06:002013-12-03T17:49:05.217-06:00Matt - The T620 is a nice box, I have never used o...Matt - The T620 is a nice box, I have never used one yet though.
