Hello all,
With data speeds and networking being a jungle, I am little confused.
I noticed a gigabyte swtich. I am curious as to what most people use these for, as in my office we have a database on a server that we share at 10/100mps. Would a gigabyte switch speed up access to the database assuming all computers had a gigabyte NIC 10/100/1000mps? Also for swapping files/saving from the server would the time it takes to save and download (transfer files, etc.) be sped up, or is that limited by the hard drive speed to which the person is saving?
Thanks for fielding this question...
