Thanks to the many many replies I got. The consensus was that the DE50*
series are supported and were the most recommended. Thanks again for all
the help.

Initial email:

Hello again managers. I have an Alphaserver 1000A 5/300 I'm putting back
into service as a backup machine and to copy over nightly backups of our
database to as well. It currently has a 10baseT NIC in it and I'd like to
upgrade it to a 10/100 model. Where can I find a list of cards that will
work with this? And does anyone have any recommendations? Currently
copying a 9 gig database everynight over 10mb connection is awful slow! The
system will be running Tru64 4.0f. Thank you!
