>Why the fuck are the (non-generic Chinese trash) 2.5 gig switches so fucking expensive.
I have a generic Chinese 2.5Gbps switch and it does the job beautifully, £30 (pretty certain you can get that even cheaper on aliexpress for like $20). Reaching 2.4 Gbps to my NAS which is pretty much the maximum it can handle anyway. And the way I need to move to 10Gbps I'll just buy an SPF+ module.
