Well, I didn't see any trouble with it. Chinese tplink switch starts at $200 (new) and has 4 sfp+ ports, plus a bunch of gbe copper. Network cards are $20-30 a pop on eBay (used mlnx), twinax DACs are $10, for longer distance transceivers ($10) and cables ($2 conn + $1/meter) are abundant also.
Newer had a trouble with this cheap setup. The only bottleneck is ssd speed in NAS.
anything above 10g might be a trouble, but I didn't try it.
