Not too interested in the end to end speed of file transfers (if i'm understand what you are asking). Since i'm using SATA and AFAIK most systems can not even saturate SATA 1 at this point (or they get close now but still plenty of overhead available in my case). Thanks for info I'll try it out. The 54MBS to 20MBS is what I was interested. I know wired i get very fast speeds, just seems that the wireless is underperforming what it says it's connecting at, that's why I want to test it.
You are misinformed. Don't confuse the speed of an interface with what the actual data transfer rate is from/to the hard drive. The actual parameter that should be of interest is the sustained data transfer rate from the disk, which is MUCH lower than the interface speed. A fast CPU with a gigabit ethernet interface can easily saturate a hard drive.
