3. If you are in a shop where duplex misconfigurations are are common

(or left at the default) and going auto/auto everywhere is not desirable, its best to hard-code to HALF duplex -- that way if the other end is left at auto things still work.

Most desirable: leave everything at auto and replace any equipment that can't be made to negotiate correctly with software or flash updates. Otherwise you are hurting performance or setting up a situation where the next port/equipment swap is likely to have a mismatch. Or you need a degree of management that is probably more expensive than equipment that works properly.
