Is this Twisted Pair Cat 5 cable or Thin Coax cable?

The first has the max of 5MB/sec.

The second has the max of 2MB/sec.

(Or so goes my memory)

But because it has a theoretical limit of 5 or 2 mb/sec does not mean that it will get it. There are issues with file transfers with from the interface to the mobo to the hard drive - these two connection points can make or break your server's speed.

So this is a 8MHz SE - stock? Any disk cache being used? Has the system been optimized? Is AppleTalk on? The 8MHz is a major stumbling block, but it is more about the software than the hardware.
