I recently added 10GbE to my home. My setup was for three desktops and my FreeNAS server, so I needed
a total of four ports. For about $680 I picked up two used Dell N2024 switches and two new stacking cables
off eBay and I could not be happier with the outcome.
During my research for this project I read the 10 Gigabit Primer stickied post by @jgreco and was given
what I considered to be a stellar piece of advice he offered before making my purchases.
Last thought, stay away from the *older* cards like the single port Chelsio S310E-CR,
they were a disappointment...
