Fellow BSDers,

I'm looking at 2 quad ethernet cards on eBay: Adaptec ANA-6944TX and Znyx
ZX346.

The Adaptec appears to use a DEC chipset. The Znyx card is supported by
de(4) and also supplies its own FreeBSD drivers up to version 4.4.

Has anyone had good or bad experiences with either of these cards?

Thanks
Rob.
