I used an Alienware Laptop, I installed two 960 EVO's and set them up in RAID 0. Got windows installed and was not able to replicate anything close to what Linus has here. No real performance increase other than write speed. Any opinions I am using Intel's Rapid Platform. I have and the 8th gen core i7 CPU. My Alienware comes with 3 m.2 NVME slots. Let me know if you guys have any ideas.

It is a J9279A What I am looking at now is probably https://www.ebay.com/itm/Netgear-ProSafe-24-Gigabit-SFP-Layer3-L3-Managed-Stackable-Switch-GSM7328S-10G/322889611415?hash=item4b2db87897:g:UXcAAOSweExaD3Pt or https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aruba-Networks-S2500-48T-4x10G-48-Port-Gigabit-Switch-TESTED-w-Warranty/232570429718?hash=item3626472116:g:zkAAAOSwbwJaFHiK https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aruba-S2500-48T-4X10G-Mobility-Access-Switch-48-Port-M368375/352215987840?hash=item5201b57680:g:nMMAAOSwzXxaFGAh:sc:FedExHomeDelivery!64850!US!-1 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aruba-Networks-S2500-48T-4x10G-48-Port-10-100-1000-Mobility-Access-Switch/132135155050?hash=item1ec3de756a:g:AKEAAOSwTM5Y0ubF I am just not sure what route to go in and I only want to make this purchase 1 time. I know Cisco is the name brand in this market. I wish I could find a cisco switch. The DAC cables I have are cisco branded so I figure I cant go wrong. Just not sure.

Hello Linus form mates, I got a question I took my home network a little bit to the extreme. So umm Yea here it goes. I originally bought a Netgear R9000 Router. This router has a SFP+ port. So I went to Ebay and bought a Mellanox 10GB SFP+ network card and BAM I got my unraid server running on my network at 10GB. WOOT. So I then decided with the cost involved not being that great I wanted to also integrate my R9000 Router. My meaning of integrate is to take it and switch it to access point mode and use the SFP+ port as my uplink to all my wifi devices as well I wanted to take my desktop machine located right nearby and also install a 10GB network card in it. So here goes my issue. I am looking for a used enterprise network switch that supports 24 port gigabit as well as 4 SFP+ ports (10GB) to interconnect my Unraid Server, Desktop Client, R9000 Router and my PFSENSE box. I already made the mistake and purchased an HP ProCurve switch which I thought would work but upon further review found that it only supports 1GB on the SFP ports. So back to the drawing board. As well FYI HP Procurve switches must use HP Transceivers or if not it wont work. You can go through telnet and play with the monkey inside but that is dependent on having the correct version and firmware. Of which I do not have. So Any information would be greatly appreciated I am as well going to continue to check the internet for any options. FYI as well currently the Mellanox 10GB network cards with DAC Cable go for $24.99 each. It is a steal when you compare an Intel Gigabit Nic is going for $70. Thank you for any ideas.
