Is your Z9100 manufactured after 2018, asking because of the Atom c2000 bug. Wanted to know if this switch is affected by that?

$600 is the budget

Power consumption and noise is not a concern. Also need minimum of 6 ports at 100G.

I am looking for a 100G switch used for my homelab. Does anyone have any recommended models? Also, are switches with an Atom C2000 cpu worth buying because of the bug they have?

My definition of cheap is around $100. Yes i am looking for 10GBase-T 8 ports + 2 ports sfp+ ports Used switches are ok, and noise is not an issue the switch will be in a server closet.

OK i can live without the Brocade firmware, but I wanted to get 1gb sfp modules working on this switch. The LB6M with brocade firmware my 1gb sfp modules work fine but on the the LB8 those same modules dont work. Any ideas on this?

I looked around to see if stock firmware is available for download but i couldn't find it anywhere

I wanted to buy 4 of these but need to do my due diligence before hand. I agree that they should work with all modern operating systems. I plan on using these in supermicro server with NVMe bays with windows server. The firmware is custom EMC so maybe that is the issue.

I asked the seller if these drives will work with Supermicro servers with Windows server. The reply i got was that these drives work with Linux PC but don't work with Windows 10. Anyone have any idea if these drives will work with windows server?
