gazgaz - a single gigabit connection can carry ~100 to ~120 MB/s per second. The peak speeds for mechanical hard drives are around 2x that. So there is a speed gain with 10 gigE.
Also, (though this wasn't relevant for jelockwood's questions), RAID allows multiple disks to be used when doing sequential file access. So the system can deliver data faster to the network than the single disk max. You can see here: http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/nas/nas- ... l=&start=2 Read speeds of over 700 MB/s and write speeds over 300 MB/s with fast disks on a 10 gigE network.
