Commented on Ability to verify backups of critical servers means I can sleep at night. Backup of physical servers could be better.

You could consider unitrends as a one stop solution or use the tsm for ve function and just use tsm for everything. IMHO both solutions beat veeam hands down.

Answered a question: What's your number one piece of advice for someone looking to purchase an Ethernet switch?

I would consider the use case for the switch: access for clients, access for equipment, building layout, data center, data center scale etc. etc Then I would find the requirements: Port speed support: 10 Mbps support?, 100/1000 Base-T, 10G SFP+? Base-T? 40G, 100G?…
