On the subject of the DFE-570TX cards, they work well with 3.x and the de driver as long as you use them in half-duplex mode. For full duplex operation, the dc driver in 4.0 is preferable. We have a number of hosts with 16 ports stuck in them doing various routing jobs. I remember being told that the de driver had a 16 port limit. I don't know if the dc driver has this limit, or what's involved in raising it.
