Looking to rewire my network connection from my pc to router (about 25meters i believe, or 50... ill have to double check), the wire on my pc end has been destroyed but the cat and im not sure on its reliability now. Also sorting out a backup system via a NAS on the network and im getting fed up with the noise from my system which is caused by the HDD in there (ssd for boot and another for games etc) as they are used for storage and relatively unused really i was thinking of shoving them in the NAS aswell and simply access if from the network as it shouldnt be to much slower than normal.
So basically cat 6 1000mbit cable needed to reduce bottlenecking (router is 1gbs as its my motherboard), what do you guys recommend as the cable supplier? Cost vs quality, needs to be a reasonable price but as it wont be replaced for another 8+ years (protected from cat now...) im not to fussed on the initial outlay.
Suggestions welcomed as there seems to be many variants of cat 6...

. Confusing on what the speed ratings actually effect, this 550mhz stuff baffles me on networking...
