Our offices are in the second floor of a two-story building, we're the only occupant in the building. The first floor is pretty much just used for random storage, and it's not finished.
But at some point we will probably fix up the first floor.
When that happens, I'm trying to think if I need any dedicated space for switches or any other IT equipment. My server room in the second floor is certainly big enough, it has nice cooling, and has space for growth.
But I want to make sure I'm not missing anything here...
If I were to have space in the first floor, I could have the space immediately below the server room, and connect the floors with a 10 GB Ethernet. But then there would be additional cost. Electrician, cooling, etc...
