An off-topic comment on PCI bandwidth: I used to think 70MB/sec or so was 32-bit/33MHz PCI's practical limit as well until I tested some RAID cards in a 32/33 PCI system and got well over 100MB/sec on sustained transfers in some cases. See the RAID-0 tables (the numbers achieved with 4 drives, in particular) about halfway down this page: http://www.storagereview.com/articles/200111/20011119Escalade7450_2.html Whether or not it's conceivable for multiple NICs to work together efficiently enough to achieve such transfer rates may be another story, but I wouldn't consider it an impossibility. -Terry
