Looking for a good gigabit switch

Looking to order a gigabit switch tonight when I get up (I work nights and just got home)

I was looking at this D-Link DGS-1008D but I see it has a few bad reviews. I am looking for something in this price range (Will go up to $75-80ish). Only things I wish it had were support for jumbo frames and rack mountable. If anyone has a better device that can do the job let me know. Otherwise I order this tonight, Thanks.

dell 8 port gig switch - 1 U, rack mout kit included. I'm sure you can find some coupons from fatwallet or techbargains...

Do what I did. Combine your wireless router and switch into a single device. Newegg has the D-Link DGL-4300 (4 port Gigabit switch built in) on sale for $95 after rebate. This is the router I have.

My OP said I'm looking for an 8 port so the 4 port would be the same as I am trying to replace. Also have no need for anything wireless anyways.

Found one at a vendor for $50.00 brand new. I might go this route since it is overkill for what I need. Overkill is a good thing here since it?s scalable.
