Would it not make sense to put the k8s network on 2.5gbe and give the three nodes a usb4 connection to a storage NAS instead? Assuming you can find a nas with 3x usb4 I suppose

A NAS typically doesn’t use or support connecting to a PC over USB, that would be DAS(direct attached storage), but even then they don’t support connecting to multiple PCs simultaneously.
The PCs in the article are connected to multiple other devices each so seems possible at least in principle.
I don’t see why the same wouldn’t be possible for a NAS. Stuff like truenas can serve across multiple interfaces
Assuming the NAS can do the same networking over USB4 that the author used it could work.
