Well so far so good, I have instant access to the share even over wi-fi.
I transferred a 6GB video file at 6mb/s though I have seen up to 10MB/s.

I'm going to replace the wi-fi connection with a cat6 cable run, go from 6mb to about 50mb/s (max speed i have seen). My bedroom is right above my PC room so shouldn't be too much trouble, just need to order a couple of face plates for the wall mouted LAN point.

Which brings me to another point, back when nvidia brought out the 590 chipset their onboard gigabit supported teaming which makes sense when they provide 2 ports. But now when i looked at my marvell onboard they don't support teaming - seems like a major oversight when they include 2 ports on the motherboard !!

Here's the RAID card I was talking about - LSI 9260-4i PCI-Express x8 4-Port SAS/SATA 6Gb/s RAID Controller Kit
