Virtual chassis benefits

Hi,

I am setting up a little infrastructure relying on two EX3300.

Communications with the outside world depend on a single optical link, so I have to connect it on one of them.

In order to get redundency, all network interfaces are bonded on both servers and storage appliances.

So my servers and their storage can be comfortable even if a switch fails, I just have to connect the fiber to the other one in that case.

I now have to set up a link between the two switches to make this really work, thank to the uplink ports and DAC cables.

So I am asking question : with such a simple setup (switch configurations are the same, except managment IP and name), do I have any benefit in setting up a virtual chassis for these two switches ? It is interrsting for my culture, but appart that ?

Thanks for any kind of explanation.

Regards
