I'd say it's worth it as soon as you have a home NAS, it lets you treat it almost as a local drive for any computer that also has 10G.

- Hamuko 5y agoI have a home NAS, but I think I need at least two, maybe three 10G switches in order to get everything hooked up properly. And then I need gear to actually get 10G on my computers. Sounds a bit expensive especially since the NAS is unfortunately limited to 2x1GbE.
- ericd 5y agoYeah, I’ve been a bit surprised at how few of the home tier NASes can get 10G. A bit of a chicken and egg, I guess. You don’t need to go fully 10G, though, I mainly prioritized my workstation for example, and if you don’t want to splash out for switches, you can do a direct connection on 10G to a computer that needs it, and use the 1G links to the rest of the LAN.
