I'll looking to rebuild an industrial PC that currently has a NI PCI-8335 MXI-3 card in it. This card is connected via fiber to a NI PXI-8335 MXI-3 card. The new PC's OS will be Windows 10.
Can you still buy the NI CI-8335 MXI-3?
Is there Windows 10 support fo the NI PCI-8335 MXI-3?
If not... Is there a replacement for the NI PCI-8335 MXI-3 card that
1. Is supported in Windows10
2. Will still talk to the NI PXI-8335 MXI-3 card?
Do I have to replace both cards (PCI-8335 MXI-3 and the PXI-8335 MXI-3)?
Thanks,
James

Hi James,
National Instruments does not carry MXI-3 cards. Currently, the PXI MXI Cards are compatible MXI-3/4 and then upconvert to MXI-Express x1. The PCI MXI cards input MXI-Express and then downconvert to PCI.
If you open the product page for MXI Controllers, note that the first selection (The 8364) is compatible with the PXI Bus and MXI-3/4.
Regards,
Stephen
