The "best" I've found so far (and gives you options to go 2.5GbE/5GbE

1: https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Ethernet-Thunderbolt-Converter... (USB-C)

2: https://www.amazon.com/2-5GBase-T-Ethernet-Controller-Standa... (Don't get the knock-off version of this, the brackets aren't the right sizes.) (PCIe)

The expensive ones I'm waiting to arrive:

3: Either a second hand Intel X520-DA1 card or the "refurb" from AliExpress

and https://mikrotik.com/product/crs305_1g_4s_in with RJ10 SFP+ modules. Then cry at how much you just spent.



X520-DA1 and most older stuff doesn’t support 2.5Gbps or 5Gbps (only 1 and 10).


Oops. They haven't arrived yet. Good thing they weren't too expensive. What would be my best bet for supporting all of those speeds?
