Anyone networking 2 PC's with Firewire? I have a 10/100 Router/Switch for my home network but i'd like to try and take advantage of the 400Mbits/sec transfer rates.
I am thinking about setting up anouther PC for encoding so I don't tie up my main PC for so long. Sending big video files across the ethernet network gets pretty time consuming and i'd rather have a dedicated line for it.
I am just wondering if those dream-world transfer rates are really achievable. When they list in the Specs that 100, 200 and 400 Mbits/sec are supported and then leave it at that, it make me wonder if I could get those kind of transfer rates at all. I have a Firewire card in my PC at the moment for Video transfer from my camera and was just thinking about getting anouther for the new PC.
Thanks
