That's basically a gigabit ethernet connection... big wup!
That whoopdeedoo connection would support maybe a couple hundred run of the mill cable modem connections before it started to bog down. The internet backbone needs to suport HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of run of the mill cable modem connections within the next 10 years. Have no fear the the vaunted internet will be able to outtransfer your $80.00 IDE hard drive anytime soon.
