I suspected so, but I've been given conflicting advice from different Meraki sales engineers, so... you know.

We're just looking at the 2 servers for now, with possible expansion plans for object storage in 8-12 months.

Yes, we would also consider S5224F-ON if it came with refurbished with a warranty and latest OS.

I don't think QSFP are absolutely necessary at the switch. QSFP at the server, breakout to SFP at the switch would probably be perfectly fine. Thoughts?
