Actually 100mbps is not faster than the read write speed of a hard disk ,even a really old hard disk,I too had 100 mbps 230 gb connection,but it is faster than the read/write speed of my hard disk,50 mbps is god enough.
100 mbps is mega bits per second, which would come to around 11-12 Mega Bytes per second
Your hard disk speeds, even going on the slower side would be atleast around 30-40/60-70 .(write/read speeds) Mega Bytes per second
But yeah, 50mbps is good enough for most part.
