I'm considering an upgrade to my local network. Most of my critical appliances have a 2.5Gbps ethernet connection, yet they are connected via a gigabit switch. The performance tests indicate ~88MB/s between my laptop and my NAS.
The NAS could handle ~3x the writes during a backup, so I wonder how to upgrade. A 2.5Gbps switch may provide the most value, but is there a reason to go straight to 10Gbps? (adapters seem ridiculously expensive to be honest)
