Few debugging suggestions:

1. Switch FTP clients

2. See if there is a difference between using the FTP server in your dashboard vs one of the FTP servers in XBMP/XBMC..

I was originally using a home-made cross-overcable. I ended up buying a canle. Everything worked fine after that.

If you are using a RETAIL 10Gb Seagate hard drive and are trying to FTP to the F: drive then you wont get higher speeds.

If you are trying to FTP to E: or have a larger hard drive and are still getting like 700k/s try changing the packet size in your FTP client to 2048.

Cheers

Do you happen to know where/if the packet size is a configurable parameter for FileZilla? When I xfer using FlashFXP, I get high speeds but it is only ~70k/s when I use FileZilla.
