If you mean Mbps then you are already above it. 100Mbps = 12.5MB/s
give or take and both speeds are above that.
I guess you probably mean 100MB/s though and that is only what
the cable can take.

If you take a T-ford onto the highway - can you go 130Km/h in it?

No, the road is rated at 130Km/s but the car can't go that fast.

Same here, the standard says you can transfer 100MB/s over the cable
but the disk isn't fast enough to be able to transfer that fast.
