I'm looking at a storage server right now, and the one I'm eyeing offers two options for networking: 2x 10Gbps RJ45 or 2x 10Gbps SFP+. I'm not sure which one to go with. Some context:

The server will live in my rack and only needs to connect to my switch. My current switch is a basic unmanaged 1Gbps RJ45 switch. I might upgrade it eventually, but for now I want something that works well with what I already have.

RJ45 seems super straightforward, just plug and play, no different from the 1Gbps connections I'm already using. But from what I understand, SFP+ is a lot more flexible, especially if I upgrade in the future. And I can still run Cat6 through SFP+ if I grab the right module, right?

I have for the longest time just ran everything from my single NUC running debian + docker, but I'm seeing users here having multiple raspberry pi's together with small form factor systems. What are the benefits from using multiple systems like that in the same rack? Just trying to understand to see if I'm missing out on anything, cheers!
