Serious question: What do you use a 10GbE adapter for? Are there ISPs which offer 10gigabit bandwidth? I suppose it would be useful on a LAN

  1. I do have 10 Gbps, I pay $35/mo here in Japan (not even a big city like Tokyo, this is a depopulating, rural capitol)
  2. More importantly, even my 5 year old, 4-bay spinning rust Synology NAS can saturate 2.5 Gbps copying files. With soldered storage in modern machines, faster networking is cheaper than replacing my whole machine
