HIRONETWORKING H50336 PCI EXPRESS NETWORK ADAPTER INTEL 82574L WINDOWS 10 PLUG

Me funciono correctamente con VmWare Esxi 7

I recently tried to turn an old desktop PC into an ESXi host, but the image didn't support the ethernet adapter that came with my PC so I ordered this. Easy to install, pretty solid construction. It was immediately recognizable to the ESXi install. Can't do better for 15 bucks.

I was skeptical but this NIC did work for a white box, home lab, ESXi build using a Ryen 3700x + Gigabyte B450M DS3H mobo. Just wanted to confirm it did work with no additional driver install needed for ESXi 7. This NIC is a Chinese Intel clone that did preform the desired function.

I bought this to load VMware on my Dell desktop and it was a go.

I liked this. I used it with an optiplex 990 and vmware esxi . It supported hardware passthrough and i assigned 2 of these cards to pf sense. The routing platform that i run is perfect. I cant even tell its really just a virtual machine. So it does support vmware passthrough.As for functionality. It works. No crashes.

ESXI didn't like my Chinese Xeon surplus motherboard's integrated NIC, so I got this and it accepted it.

Got a motherboard that had a Realtek NIC that VMware wouldn’t recognize during install. Got this NIC and it works like a champ. Allowed me to install VMware 7 and it’s happiness ever since.
