Which unmanaged gigabit switch?

[Stu]

I am being indecisive! I need a new gigabit switch, 8 port, metal casing.

I have narrowed it down to these two, both prices at approx £25.

Netgear GS308
+ Netgear quality generally good.
+ 192 kb buffer memory
- Power plug on back and all ports on front
Datasheet

Zyxel GS-108B v2
+ All ports and sockets on back
+ Dedicated high and medium QoS ports
- 128 kb buffer memory
Datasheet

I think all other features are pretty much the same. I like the features and the presentation of the Zyxel router, however, will it take a hit on performance due to the smaller buffer memory?

Is there another switch I should be looking at that is the same price?

The performance differences between unmanaged Gigabit switches are too small to worry about. Buy the one you like the look of.
