I noticed Cyberjock mentioned in https://cyberj0ck.wordpress.com/2014/05/05/my-review-of-the-freenas-mini-part-2/ that he had used a 10Gb intel adapter with the Freenas Mini. I am curious what are cost effective 10Gb adapters others are using with freenas.

Depends on what your definition. The cheaper, reliable ones are the Intels (take your pick), but they won't do quite 10Gb. If you need the whole 10Gb, Chelsio is the better option.

Any specific model numbers on the intel adapters? I am having trouble finding any on ebay.

There is already a forum sticky on various 10Gb adapters. There is no reason to ask for info that is already clearly provided. ;)
