Hi Rick,

OK, thanks for clarifying.

As, it seems there's different devices with (1) mixed speed NICs and (2) mixed 
category cabling being used in your setup, I will simplify things by saying 
that if you want to get much faster speeds then I think you'll need to ensure 
you (1) use at least Cat. 5e cables between all devices talking on your LAN, 
and (2) ensure you use Gigabit NICs, and (3) confirm negotiated NIC speed 
before performing speed tests. Then, assuming your disks are reasonably fast, 
you should, using CIFS sharing, be able to get around 40+ MBytes/sec sustained 
throughput using one NIC on each box, with your Gigabit switch.

Hope that helps.

Simon
