Can someone explain these readings?

I have a slight idea what some of these mean, but could someone explain in more technical terms? I'm measuring my network by transfering files and I'm getting quite pitiful speeds. Only 30mb/sec total when I check in the fedora system monitor. Though firefox on my windows machine is showing 20MB/sec on one of the transfers (the others are through file shares).

Just trying to determine if it's my software raid 5 being the bottleneck, or the network:
