I recently upgraded my Synology NAS, desktop PC network card, switch & ethernet cables to 10Gbe. Moving large files between my desktop & Synology is blazing fast vs. the 1Gbe I had for over a decade. So, got me thinking, as there are no media players w/2.5Gbe, let alone 10Gbe, could I get a 2.5Gbe ethernet adapter like this, attach to a media player w/USB3.0 and even better local streaming speeds? Realize 1Gbe is more than enough for even the highest bitrate UHD rips, but just curious if this could work.
