The ReadyNAS 4312x comes with 2 10GB NICs, but I would like to add an additional 10GB BaseT NIC.
Anyone do this or know of a NIC that can be added?

I had a 10Gtek Intel X540-T2 card that I put in the internal 8x PCIe slot. When my 4312x booted it showed 8 NICs total in the networking tab. eth4 to eth7 showed as 10 gigabit. The 10 gigabit card that comes with the 4312x appears to be an Intel X550 so I'm assuming any of those 10 gigabit intel PCIe cards should work (like the X520 if you wanted to add SFP+).

Re: Add another 10GB NIC to ReadyNAS 4312X
Thank you, I may try this out. (4312x needs to have 4 10GB and 2 1GB, just saying)
*I am using the 4312x to run a few VM's and SMB shares for various backups like Veeam. I have a physically seperate 10GB iSCSI network, and would prefer some redundancy (since one 10GB NIC is used for iSCSI, on separate physical switches than the SMB shares)
