Does a gigabit nic make any difference on a low volume web server?

Or is that something the host is requesting?

Subject: [frgeek-michiana] Colo server update

Being I forgot to order the gigabit nic for the colo server I got that 
done today. I'll have it tomorrow.

Tom,

   As soon as I have the new nic installed, the server is ready to go to 
the colo location. It's not configured for email, web yet but that all 
can be done after the colo install. As I recall, I had it all configured 
in 1/2 day on the first attempt.

   Time to call the colo to let them know and get the ip information 
from them.

    2u rack server
    4.2g cpu w/ 2 gig ram
    10/100/1000 Intel Pro nic.
    300watt power supply (single)
    Debian Linux OS (Lenny 5.0)

    System will have two nic's in it I'll have the motherboard nic 
blocked with a dummy plug. They will cable the expansion nic.

    I just need to know if there is anything else that needs setup 
network wise before we send it off.

    Thanks!

    Goose
