another thing to consider...what are you doing while the transfer is occuring...checking email, surfing, playin diablo??? if you are accessing either the source OR destination drive during the transfer it could be this multitasking that is slowing things down...
i just finished transfering 3.5gb worth of mp3s using a 3com 10mb/sec hub and netgear 310txs in under 20 minutes...of course i walked away from the machine during the transfer...just my $.02
