Here you go:

I bought a storage solution from dell a couple years ago and their storage expert recommended the PowerConnect 2716's
No problems whatsoever.

Their newer version is the 2800 series.

Note that this assumes the switches are used for iSCSI only.

so this CISCO Catalyst (WS-C2960G-24TC-L) should be a good one?

My storage solution is from HP and not DELL. I'm sure it doesn't matter at all. I would probably go with a 24 port instead of 48 port. I see there is a DELL 5424 available.
nope, iSCSI is iSCSI; 24 port is fine, 48 port was just off the top of my head.

any opinions about the HP switches? the E2910
we ended up getting cisco 2960's 24 port.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
