I'm using a Linksys 8 port Gb switch now and have seen speeds ~ 50MB/s through it to my file server. This was a major increase from the 11MB/s I was seeing over 100Mb. For the price I paid for the switch ($160) I though it was well worth it.

I'd stick with Intel NIC's though.. So far they've worked out great under Linux and Windows ....

I have always been wanting the Linksys, not a bad price and it would just be my server to me

The rest os my pad would still have the 100BT

Cisco (if affordable)

But others I'd use D-Link or 3Com or Netgear. I had a bad Linksys router that would cause massive ping spikes while gaming and I have friends that had issues with Linksys products.

D-Link, Netgear, or Cisco. Linksys is too shoddy IMHO.
