The issue is that what will be the performance dropped if the card is plugged in a 32-bit 33 MHz PCI slot. According to the data sheet, the MD5 performance is 100 Mbps. On a 32-bit 33 MHz PCI system, it all means that the performance will be dropped to 50Mbps, right? > - FreeBSD could support it if a driver were developed. > - If you want a driver, let Chrysalis-ITS know.
