Hardware Overview
Adaptec provides the following PCI 10/100 DuraLAN Fast
Ethernet NIC models:
Note:
All NICs are 64 bits. All NICs support 3.3V and 5V.
Adaptec DuraLAN 64-bit NICs can also be used in a 32-bit PCI slot
provided the NIC fits in the slot. If the DuraLAN NIC does not fit
the slot, return it to your place of purchase for a replacement.
Performance
The more peripherals and NICs in your system, the more loaded it
becomes. At this point, a 64-bit PCI is a significant benefit that
provides the following:
Allows devices to get on and off the PCI bus faster
Doubles the capacity of the PCI bus—twice as much data
transferred at once (or the same amount transfers twice as fast)
