14MBits/Sec = 1.75Mbytes/s BTW what the max writing speed of your hard disk ? ;o) hardware/in windows and in linux. No idea about the overhead. Try this...install apache in the linux machine, and then use your browser to download a 100mb file from the same computer. whats the download speed ? ofcoz u cant use getright here.
