Honestly, the main reason I think they put an extra ethernet port on some of the high end consumer boards is just for marketing coolness factor and not because it's actually useful somehow, which it rarely ever is.

The g/f and I have separate internet connections (I need a backup for working at home) and dual NICs. We share data on the second NIC. Works very well. A little slow when moving more than a couple gb, but it is better than pulling hard drives.
