| Whats the point? And whats the point if your harddrive cannot even read at 100mbps? I have 100mbps over my LAN and I can only get about 70mbps max (which thats still good compared to our typical internet connection) but what Im saying is you wont ever be able to reach 100mbps on typically anything. |

San Diego, CA | Who cares about how fast your hd can store the data?
RAM can move terabits a second.
And what about streaming? When you stream do you need HD space? LOL
When we do have 100mbit connections I'm sure it will be primarily used to stream stuff. I'm guessing will see real-time streaming video instead of static images on websites. The ability to do instant video conferencing. It will definitely give more value to broadband and more services. |

Ever heard the quote of "necessity is the mother of invention" ? or "Build it and they will come" ? Point is that technology has always evolved when the time was right or imminent however you want to see it. Bus speeds for computers stayed at 33/66 mhz for a looooonnnnggg time until processor speeds forced the change then oops all of the sudden bus speeds jumped to 100 then to 133 almost immediately and are still going past 800 last I checked. I am thinking that HD R/W speeds will do the same slick.

| I was playing with WD raptor drives in mirror arrays in a data center with gig-e and 200 mbit a sec was easily handled by the drives. For fun we streamed dvd files from the network to see how many people could put a hurting on the drivers before they died. Far as I know when I left today they are still functions running the dolby 5.1 dvd between systems.
