will this work on a standard desktop to convert it to a home server also what is the exact slot sise

This card uses a standard PCI slot and will assist in helping you build a server. I don't know what Operating System you are planning on using but don't use Windows 2003 server. It dies a good death next summer. I hope this helps.

The Card Stot sixe is a PCI-X or PCI. The card is actually able to fit in a PCI-X slot, but it can also fit in a PCI slot with the end of the card hanging over the end of the PCI slot. The PCI slot is much smaller than the PCI-X slot. However a PCI-X card will work in a PCI slot. Either slot will work, PCI or PCI-X.

Yes. I installed mine (PCI type) on my Dell Workstaion which was running VMware vSphere 5.5 as the OS. This dual NIC was automatically recognized after reboot and was available. There is a good chance that Windows 2008 and up will recognize this card natively, too. Worked really well in vSphere. Good luck!

Not really sure what do you mean by home server. I use it with Windows 7 x64 and it does not need any 3rd party drivers. The OS recognizes the device automatically, hope it helps

This card WILL work fine in any x16 slot or x8 slot even on most desktop pc's. As long as the workstation/desktop motherboard doesn't have limited expansion (like some dell, hp and store-bought systems have) this will work. This card doesn't need a server os or motherboard. Just install the intel drivers for the Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Server Adapter or Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Quad Port LP Server Adapter. I have a gigabyte amd desktop system running Windows 7 x64 and I am using this in an x16 slot (speed auto defaults to card speed). Works perfectly fine and the speed is perfectly smooth. Windows 7 x64 even had the driver already. Just plug-n-play. This card WILL work fine in any x16 slot or x8 slot even on most desktop pc's.

Looking at the model specifications, it seems the only free slot you have available is a pci-e (express) slot. That's no problem though, here's an example of one with the correct interface: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833166019&Tpk=rosewill%20rc%20411

Just make sure you have a pci slot avaliable and that as long as you have the right drivers I would say it should work

No don't thin so It wouldn't work in mine. I think it is for a server not a desktop computer. If you are looking to upgrade your memory go to crucial.com. They can scan your computer and tell you what will work.

No idea. I'm using mine for a server that runs "headless" and can be controlled remotely over the network (look up "IPMI"). I had no need to install a video card.

Its work with all desktop.Just to makesure it has a pci express slot. Thats It !!

It might, but personally I think it would be a waste of money. Go with a legit gaming board or even a midrange board (single socket) and put more money into your graphics card. Bulk of gaming is running off of your GPU, so spending $260 on a server mainboard really wouldn't benefit you as much as going dual graphics cards.

IF you have the proper slot for it, it should work just fine. This is a PCI card and you have to have a PCI slot. You have to open your computer up and make sure you have enough space for the height of the card as some systems do not have the "head room" for this card. But if you have the head room and the proper slot it should work just fine for you.

Yes you can use it, as long as you have stop on motherboard to plug it in. this will work on any tower

there are slots avail for any hard drive you wish to input these gamer towers are wide open nvidia didnt promise anything and mine is by dell.. its a basic tower..you should add that which you think you need

I am not sure what you mean by 'connect this to a server'. Think of this as a PC case. You still have to add a motherboard, power supply, etc. just as if you were making a tower desktop. The only difference with this case is that you need to connect the SAS backplanes of this to the motherboard. This is done with SFF-8087 forward breakout cables from HBA or RAID cards or SFF-8087 reverse breakout cables from SATA/SAS ports on the motherboard itself.

I'm using mine in my desktop. You might want a spacer to make it fit in your bays better. But it will work in my desktop (presuming you've got a sata data connector, (and sata power, but that's available with adapters)

Yes, it does. I have it running in an HP DL320 1U server in a horizontal, half-height slot.

I can't answer this question except to say the best way to determine if this will work (or what your machine needs) is to go to crucial.com and run an analysis that will give you all your pc specs, the kind of memory it will take and how much more you can put in it (if at all). Good luck!

This is the one i buy for our server. ... .4GB 2RX8 PC3-10600E-9 Kit. I am pretty sure it will work with your server either of them.
