I've been noticing a lot of standard gigabit switches dropping in price lately, and I think it's exactly because more and more people are upgrading to 2.5 Gb switches instead. However, what a lot of people don't realize about unmanaged switches is that without having bigger uplinks, you are still ultimately limited to that individual port speed when routing traffic back. I personally opted for a 2.5 Gb switch that features 10 Gb uplinks just so I could maintain a full 10 Gb pipe back down to my router.

It looks like there's the TL-SG108-M2 (this) and the TL-SG108S-M2 (with added 'S'):A google search suggests the "S" is the later model. It looks like it has a slightly more compact design, but other than that it's not immediately clear if there are any other notable differences.

I got the S model a couple weeks ago. Similar price. Works great and I think it's a little smaller. Sadly, both Mac minis I have max out at 1gbps with the built-in.
