Brandon, 1Gigabit/s is the total system bandwidth. It does not translate well to individual transaction throughput without 100% recent, properly configured equipment. I'm pleased with 200Mb/s copies without new boards.
You might do better buying a larger case with space for additional disks. Knocks out a bunch of bottleneck opportunities.
