• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Home use (AKA not uber-expensive)

New/used doesn't matter, home use only, not production.

Minimum 16x 10/100/1000

Must support link aggregation (LACP and static)

No requirement for mini GBIC or anything, just going to be using the RJ-45 ports.
 
I just bought a HP 1810g-24 for home use. Supports your requirements, I paid like 265 new at newegg, during a sale. Think it's 285 normally.

I'm quite happy with it, plus lifetime warranty!
 
You can pick up Dell 5324's on ebay for $100. Then flash them with 2010 firmware update from Dell.

(Psst--same H/W as Foundry EdgeIron, and a couple other 24-port switches that look exactly the same)

Follow this and you can have a 24-port L2/3 GigE switch for cheapz:

I don't load it heavily, but I've had 1/2 it's ports on 3 LACP and 1 roundrobin aggros and it it slings pkts like a boss.

cheers! :D
