solid 8 port gigabit

What is a good solid 8 port gigabit switch under $100? There was hp procurve switch I saw awhile back but it seems to have been discontinued, now the new one is like $150.

What do you want from it? If you just want an unmanaged switch, they're pretty much all the same, and pretty much just work. Look for >9k jumbo frame support as a requirement, they nearly all have it now. If you want a web-managed/smart switch, they're also pretty much the same, just that means they're all about as bad. Reliability can be a concern with those.

Just an unmanaged switch, for steaming to htpc and backing up files to NAS. I am thinking of buying this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833156281

That model is recommended around here, for a unmanaged switch.

EDIT: Or this is the one recommended around here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833156251
