A move to NASLite+ should increase your network speed to somewhere in the 7-10MByte/sec rate. The low speed with the free NASLite is due to it not using DMA on your motherboard to save program space so it fits on a floppy. The speed you get will depend on how fast your motherboard is and if if supports higher speed transfers from the disks.
NASLite+ will require either a CD or a USB key to boot, depending on which version you buy. If you want all 4 IDE slots for hard drives, get the USB version. The + versions don't boot from floppy but the CD version still requires a floppy to save your parameters on. The USB version saves the parameters on the USB key.
