I've been searching and trying to read up on this as much as possible but I 
just can't find the answer...

What benefit does CIFS provide over samba for home users that really don't 
require any security and just want a basic "file dump" server?

(As you've no doubt seen my previous posts, all I care about is setting up the 
fastest file server possible to serve to my Windows machines).

CIFS sounds nice but it's only available in Solaris Express so I'm assuming 
it's only beta and still experimental?

Do I even need CIFS?  Would it improve network file performance or do anything 
else for me?
