Nice.

I do a lot of video editing, 3d work, and the transfer from macbook pro to PC is painful. I've resorted to using Firewire 800 drives, but I have to run a sadistic NTFS add-on for OSX to make the drive friendly between the two systems. My gigabit network gets a pathetic throughput.

My day job, however, is a SAN architect.

I was working with a Texas Memory Systems RAMSAN-630 which is a 10TB 500,000 IOPS, 10GBYTE/Sec ssd array in a nice little low power footprint.

Using 8Gb FC PCI-E dual port HBA's, with a clustered file system, the multi-gigabyte file transfers were taking only SECONDS.

Now if I only had the huge amount of capital to squander on such hardware....

Unearthed topic ... 😉
I'm copying 200 Gb from a Buffalo NAS (so-called Gigabit) to a USB2 drive using a Mac Mini and a Gigabit router (Bbox3, from belgian operator).

I'm even not reaching 3MB/s 🙁
Very poor, huh!
Buffalo machine is really entry-level and is currently downloading/uploading with its native bittorrent client, but still... very poor results 🙁
