Bryce Nesbitt, as per
http://www.supermicro.com/support/resources/results.aspx an update is
available for your BIOS (2.0b). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

** Description changed:

- This is a continuation of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018561
- The  Intel 82574L Gigabit NIC, and probably others, drop RX packets.
+ The Intel 82574L Gigabit NIC, and probably others, drop RX packets.
  There are multiple reports, even though it's a hard one to pin down.
- 
  This is most noticeable in ssh sessions.  The errors show up as
  "dropped" RX packets.
