Cheap ebay nework switch

Thanks, it would be good but the extra $35 shipping makes it not very good value anymore. Thanks though.
 
If you have gigabit devices, I would look at a gigabit switch. 10/100 switches do a max of 12MB/s while gigabit will do about 100MB/s. Makes copying files between machines much faster.
It will say gigabit and be labeled like this, 10/100/1000

I've had good luck with the NetGear gigabit switches.
 
I'd look for some used enterprise gear. I picked up a Dell 2748 (48 port managed gigabit switch) for $40. It's been my experience that used enterprise gear is much better than new consumer grade hardware. If you don't need a lot of ports and want a quieter switch, I'd look for a 16 port used enterprise switch with passive cooling.
