Went to steal a bunch of movies etc off my friends HDD, I figured the quickest method would be a cat5 cable. So attempted this but the transfer rate was only 476kb a second....I thought this should be flying at several meg, though I imagine I'm being a tard. Should this not be much faster? I need to do anything else other than connect a cat5 between the machines?
 
His is a shuttle and mine a laptop unfortunately. Was just making sure I wasn't being a total idiot, I knew it should have been working much faster. I'll work something out im sure.

Thank you for the quick replies
