I'm moving computers and drives around and moving some large files. I'm disappointed in my file transfer speeds and thought to ask out here what kind of speeds you guys are seeing in your Windows home networks.
I'm using Windows file explorer and just copy and pasting several GB at a time and I'm only seing about 9 MB/s. There is one managed switch involved, otherwise it is Windows PC to Windows PC.
What is happening is that I start a transfer from computer A to computer B. The speed is approx 9 MBs. Then I start the same transfer from a third wifi computer C and the speed was about 4 MBs. Why is the transfer slower when initiated from a third computer?
Mike.
PS - It is a gigabit network with both computers wired to the network.
