I'd say that DVD readers would be faster then over a standard network (10/100). But anyways, if you really have that much porn in picture form... you need to organize it. There realy shouldn't be a problem with just opening folders off the dvd if the folder has maybe 500 pictures in it... Maybe I am just not up on all the latest ways to use porn (Read: store it / download it) but I can't see the need to have a few thousand pictures in 1 folder....

Thats my take on it anyways, I have 3 dvd's of pictures that are all atleast 1.2megs (high res on my camera) and it isn't that bad as long as I keep less then about 200 images in a folder... which isn't a problem for me. HTH.
