Re: 10/100/1000
I carnt suggest a spacific gigabit switch/hub, but DLink and Netgear are the best for networking, also if your laptop doesn't have a gigabit network adapter I believe that the connection would be slower then it would be if both your PC and switch/hub and laptop were 100Mbit, so if your laptop doesn't have a gigabit network adapter I recommend you make your network 100Mbit, also if there are speed variations in transfer speed it may make the connection unstable and like I said before it may be slower then 100Mbit even thow it your PC and switch are gigabit, also gigabit hardware can be expensive, so unless you have a real need for a ultrafast network I sugest you use 100Mbit also using a parallel connection to transfer 7GB's of stuff will take ages, I don't know the exact speed of a papralel connection but I'm sure it's slower then 10Mbit/s
