I saw plenty of used switches available. Are current gen switches necessary?

    Sounds reasonable. We’re in a very different situation. We bought a bunch of used hardware but our servers are for training models. All of our production stuff runs in AWS. We definitely don’t want downtime but a day where researchers have issues is very different than a day where your app is down and your reputation is tarnished.

      Your customer is yourself. My customer is hopefully you. I do not want to piss you off, especially by telling you that the failure is because I bought used unsupported hardware.
