Review: Fast, and easy to use! - I’ve been wanting to upgrade my home network to 10G speeds, so I bought the solo for my network adapter for my Alienware 17 R5 laptop. This device does achieve the rated 10G speeds. I have this wired to a 10G UniFi switch via cat6, the switch is also connected to my server with a 10G nic that has a m.2 SSD drive. And in the attached video you can see that a 15 gigabyte file transferred across my network in 15 seconds!!! Don’t forget that your speeds will only be as fast as other bottlenecks in your system as most mechanical hard drives top out at 150 MB/sec and even standard SSD top out at 500 MB/sec. (non-raid). m.2 SSD drives are really fast and will allow reads and writes at or above the 1Gb/sec transfer rate. Most of the time this device runs slightly warm, however during long durations of high speed transfers it does get hot. But I have had no issues after 2 weeks of usage. I’m very happy with the product and highly recommend for laptop uses, as a standard 10G nic is more cost effective for a desktop application.
Review: Works perfectly in Mac and Windows. - Fantastic performance and runs very well. It runs hot just like any other 10G Ethernet NIC so be careful not burn your hands but at least it comes with a nice long and flexible Thunderbolt cable. I wanted one with an integrated cable and this looks pretty well put together as the cable is detachable but requires a couple screws to be removed. So it’s secure in there you don’t need to worry about the adapter side to be a failure point. Setup is pretty simple, just get the Aquantia drivers installed. The only problem is I can’t seem to connect to CS:GO matchmaking with this adapter on a gaming laptop. I had the same problem on my desktop with an Aquantia card. I was able to fix that on my desktop so I’ll figure it out. Fortunately that’s the only problem I have and I don’t think it’s the product’s fault because there is no problem with anything else. Price is a bit higher than I’d like but it does work pretty well on both my MacBook Pro and my Windows laptops.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be rated for 24/7 operation? planning to use it for my nuc and ds1819+**
A: Ironically, I am also using it with a NUC and DS1819+.  I don't remember seeing a rating for it in that regard, but I have been using it 24/7 since November with success.  It is warm, but seems to work well.  Glad to see you landed on this one.   I bought a different one first, and couldn't get it to work.  Good luck!

**Q: Will this work with Linux? Are there Linux drivers?**
A: The chip vendor (Aquantia) makes a Linux driver available here  https://www.aquantia.com/support/driver-download/ This device is the AQC-107.

I can't speak to the quality or installation process for this driver, but Sonnet's site points you there. http://www.sonnettech.com/support/kb/kb.php?cat=537&expand=_a3&action=b1032#b1032

**Q: Will this work with a intel nuc?**
A: I never even heard of an Intel NUC.  But I looked it up, and it does have a Thunderbolt 3 port, so I guess - yes, it "should" work, as long as you 
can download drivers for normal Win 10 computers on the Intel NUC
Bob Zelin

**Q: Windows 10 isn't finding a driver for this adapter... I've approved the adapter in the thunderbolt app, but can't find a driver... Do I download it?**
A: You can download Windows and Linux drivers from the support area of the sonnettech web site. MacOS drivers are native.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So much better than the SABRENT NO DRIVERS NEEDED
*by A***X on April 3, 2025*

So much better than the SABRENT Thunderbolt 3. Plug and play. NO DRIVERS NEEDED I had the SABRENT Thunderbolt 3, and after every couple of updates, the drives stop working on the devices, and I can no longer use them. I bought this, and it worked right out of the box. I didn't install any drivers and it showed up in my networking tab my thunderbolt utility
