That is not exactly the greatest cable modem. While it supports up to 160 Mbps DOCSIS 3, the WAN is only 10/100 Mbps. You want to get one that has a 10/100/1000 WAN. 100 Mbps + tiers are coming shortly from comcast and others already have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but I am taking into consideration the actual speed that the HDD can process the data. Not the entire network. Besides, he's only looking for 50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, he's only looking for 50 100Mbps is about 12MB/s (Average speed for a HDD is 40MB/s to 90MB/s) More platters you have in a drive the faster the drive is. 1000Mbps is about 125MB/s (Only HDDs that can run at that speed and faster are SSD but the 1.5TB 5 platter drive do run at 100MB/s so it's still better to get a modem that has 1000Mbps WAN) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
