Steine,
Good Switch: Dell PC2716............. :)
Can be managed, if you care, but, if you just plug it in and go, it just
flat works!
I have 2. Great boxes. Folks could argue pricey, but I have no bad to report.
If I did not know I had the new Dell Switches, I would think I still might
have the old 10/100 Netgear switches I've lived with for the past very many
years......(on reliability!)......... :)
The good news is that the whole LAN is FASTER NOW!
I'll rec the Dell 27xx switch!
Best,
Duncan

I have 2 PC's and 2 one Terabyte NAS boxen, all using wired connections to
my router's switch, which only has 10/100 ports. All are currently
connected at 100 mbits per second.
All 4 devices are 10/100/1000 capable, so would connecting them to a
standalone gig switch and then connecting the gig switch to the router be
worth doing?
ie, would I see any noticeable speedup when the PC's and NAS's talk
together in transferring files, watching movies, or doing backups and such
to and from the NAS's.?
I realize the connection to the router and the internet would still only
be 100 megs. :)
