    It's the hardware that dictates the speeds, and all machines on your network would have to have gigabit ethernet fitted if you want to see gigabit speeds between them.
    All the machines have gigabit network cards in them and when running a 2003 server we used to get 1gb transfer speed. Then we changed to 2008 server which has a mind of it's own and wont allow fast transfer speeds all the time :mad:

    Sorry, I digress.
