Unfortunately I don't have that old Intel NICs to test on my end either to verify. https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/list-of-nics-and-their-equivalent-oem-parts.20974/ first page might be helpful in finding older I340-based cards at least. Unfortunately I didn't find any listings of OEM models for i350-based cards although these are still (in general it seems) available as new so they may be scarce pulled/used. I did also find these cheap (if you live in US) which seems to be based on the I340 chipset (not tested by me) which may also work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/122501625474?epid=27017868551&hash=item1c85aa7682%3Ag%3AXXwAAOSwYvFZHK9e&LH_BIN=1 https://forum.netgate.com/topic/135149/riverbed-4-port-nic-how-to-convert-it-into-a-regular-nic If you have anything else PCIe-based to test feel free to report back and I'll add it to the wiki Best regards, Daniel
