NETGEAR 8 Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Compact Switch
This arrived a day earlier than I expected. I installed it in my expanding home network and it worked without my having to do more. The product is solid due to its external metal housing is mounted on on a well ventilated wall with the supplied screws.

Still going strong
Mine's been running perfectly for 18 months, now. I plugged it in and it has done everything I've asked of it over that time without the slightest problem.

Cheap Power Adaptor, Expensive to Replace
Although the switch itself has a "lifetime" warranty, the power adapter is only warrantied for two years. Our failed after about 2.5 years, and Netgear charges $27.00 for a replacement with is closed to 30% of the cost of the switch.

- -No 1U rack mount kit included

Item Failed
This switch was fantastic until it bit the dust. I used it in a software testing lab environment without any problems until one day all the lights were blinking (one second on and one second off).
Pros:
- Worked great for 9 months
Cons:
- Stopped working after 9 months

Perfect switch
This 8 ports switch worked so well for me. There was no problem since I bought this product a few months ago. Easy to set up. Just plug and play. Files transfer between several computers in the network are very fast.
Pros:
- Work so well with other branch
Cons:
- none

Also faultless for about 15 months...
...and also died. There seems to be a common problem with these, which manifests itself as the "little blinking lights of death". But it's from the ProSafe range, and has a lifetime warranty.

One fine 10/100/1000 Ethernet switch
100/1000Mbps is the only switch to use for home use. Metal case and low-cost ($8/port) makes the GS108 a no-brainer.
Pros:
- Solid
- metal case
- 1Gbps
- simple to use
Cons:
- Non-manageable - minor issue for home use

Does exactly what I expected. I have not done any speed tests but pulling pictures from my NAS drive is fast.The drive I received is much smaller than the picture. If you go to the Netgear site youll see the difference. There is no bank of lights on the left.
