I found that if I rebooted and initiated a large transfer from a dell server (2003) and my desktop (Vista 64) I would get about 93 MB/s which is about as fast as both drives can read and write. Over time however, the tranfer rate from Vista to 2003 would slow down considerably. I suspect the dynamic tcp window "feature" does not do a very good job.Logan Greenleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14481938320975583220noreply@blogger.com
