I found the rackmount ears for my Netgear FS516 the other day.  Only
about a year and a half after buying new ones....

I wouldn't mind having a managed switch in the rack instead of an
unmanaged one.  But the truth is I have one already (a salvaged Bay)
that I've never gotten around to putting into service.  16 ports is
enough for me, and it Just Works.
