Philip, thanks for the response. The current backup appliance has 4 1GB connections, however we want room for growth later. Currently I only have 2 of the 10GB fiber connections hooked up. The redundancy isn't really necessary in this case. If one of the switches go out it would be really easy to move connections. Firmware updates on both switches at the same time aren't an issue either. If switching from 2 independent switches to 1 stack is it a pretty straightforward process? Or will a lot of configuration need to be changed on the ports?
