Copying files between systems very slow.
I have 2 systems both win7. They are on the same netgear fs105 switch. The network cards are set to autonegotiate.
Now I rip my bluray movies and move them from one system to another by just copy and paste. Sometime these folder can be about 20 - 30gb. I usually see when coping I would get upwards of about 100mb/second. But sometimes I would get 20-30mb/sec. By watching the details in the copy I would see it copying a very large file and doing 30mb/sec, so I know it's not happening because it's copying multiple small files.
anyway to figure out why I'll get 100mg/sec or more at time and other times it's very slow. I have other devices on the same switch, but I check and they are in use when it slows down.

Same principle would apply to a GS105
It depends on a few factors,
1, How old are your PCs? check to see how busy the disks are ( look in resource manager)
2, Any AV running that is scanning new files?
3, the max speed you will get is around 70-80MB/s
4, Using on-board network cards?
For home grade hardware 30-50MB/s (300-500 gigabit) is acceptable

with many small files the file open command (which is used for each file) is a known relatively slow operation.
