but it'll show once two or more do file transfers at once, although i wonder if you could setup a QoS to prioritize streaming over everything else.

Interesting. Yes that's good to know. Though the only person who will be able to delete, edit and transfer files will be me. But yeah I see what you mean. Btw, WD reds 4tb on sata 2 versus sata 3 is no difference? Or is there a difference?
kitamesume:
barely any, sequential average speed will still top at around 80MB/s, although SATAIII has a few other good things to be considered.

--- Quote --- 6 Gbit/s for scalable performance.
Continued compatibility with SAS, including SAS 6 Gbit/s. "A SAS domain may support attachment to and control of unmodified SATA devices connected directly into the SAS domain using the Serial ATA Tunneled Protocol (STP)" from the SATA_Revision_3_0_G old specification.
Isochronous Native Command Queuing (NCQ) streaming command to enable isochronous quality of service data transfers for streaming digital content applications.
An NCQ Management feature that helps optimize performance by enabling host processing and management of outstanding NCQ commands.
Improved power management capabilities.
A small low insertion force (LIF) connector for more compact 1.8-inch storage devices.
A connector designed to accommodate 7 mm optical disk drives for thinner and lighter notebooks.
Alignment with the INCITS ATA8-ACS standard.
In general, the enhancements are aimed at improving quality of service for video streaming and high-priority interrupts. In addition, the standard continues to support distances up to one meter. The newer speeds may require higher power consumption for supporting chips, though improved process technologies and power management techniques may mitigate this. The later specification can use existing SATA cables and connectors, though it was reported in 2008 that some OEMs were expected to upgrade host connectors for the higher speeds

But the difference is not enough to have a negative effect in streaming. we are talking 80-90MB/s were if you are streaming a 1:1 bluray you only need to sustain 5.4MB/s then add a file transfer on to that it will easily support both with no negative impact. now if you start pushing multiple transfers from multiple sources sure you will saturate the line but in a home setup they would have no impact in a practical situation.
kitamesume:
thats what i just said.
but if it were a concern the work around is pretty simple, bridge two NICs and connect both into the switch.
halfelite:
Correct but just so you get your terms right for future use. You are referring to teaming not bridging. Birding just combines two networks to allow nat translation across them. teaming you use to either split incoming/outgoing over two separate nics or combine them for increased bandwidth.
In all honesty when I built my server I had a switch that had 10Gb/s so I installed a 10GB/s interface and only time I have ever used over a what gig interface would have offered is when I first transferred everything from my old NAS to my new one.
