With the latest X99 WS-E/10G motherboard ASRock shows very impressively the way in the future. Because the abbreviation 10G of the ASRock X99 WS-E/10G stands for one or more specifically two Intel X540 network connectors with up to 10 Gigabit per second transfer rate. We have tested two of these high-end motherboards with Intel Core i5-5930K processors and RAID0 arrays consisting of two Crucial MX200 SSDs to compare the very high 10G LAN speed with the current Gigabit LAN standard. First of all: We are excited and can’t wait until this standard prevails at home. On the CeBIT 2016 we have already discovered NAS companies, providing NAS with 10 GBit LAN for home users.
