Not only is it expensive but the 10GbE devices need actual real active cooling to run, plus they need special adapters and cables as well.

It's not just a simple cable and plug to connect something with 10Gbps, you need SFP+ then these extra adapters, then the cables.

I see that 2.5Gbe and 5Gbe will be the upgrade path for people to go with at home. I'm certainly going to upgrade to 2.5Gbe in the coming months.
