Hi,
Need Help Transfering Large Files Quickly (minutes, seconds!? Money is not a big issue. I am faced with transfering large (10-100 Gig's) games, game mods over many computers. Cutting to the chase I want my computers as fast as possible when transfering Gig's of information. Faster then 1000BASE-T, preferably alot faster. All I am educated in is Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 56, basically ethernet. What will zoom my transfers?

Your transfers will only be as fast as the slowest link on the network . Unless you have equipment that is all 10 gig interfaces it's never going to get over a gig . Even a gig interface will be somewhat less than a gig due to overhead etc ...
