I'll just add a few more points from my experience that might help.

1. It doesn't matter what Windoze version it is, old or new, they all seem to suffer from this.
2. Using gigabit interfaces makes it worse.
3. Transfering very large files makes it much worse. Starts off good and then gets sloooooower and slooooooooooooooower. Thousands of smaller files is less of a problem but still slow.

Hope that helps. As you'll see in the link I posted above, people say "Why doesn't Microsoft do something to help us poor buggers out!". But they don't!
