Maximum transfer rates
For reference, gigabit ethernet offers theoretical 128 MB/s transfers,
while local hard drives offer between 60 and 90 MB/s. Obviously the
latency will be a bit higher on the networked drives, but you'll see no
drop in sustained transfer rates. Compare that to a theoretical maximum
of 37.5 MB/s for wireless N or 6.75 MB/s for wireless G, and bear in
mind that those speeds will be shared with all clients rather than
dedicated as with the ethernet connection.
