Once you've bonded what do you use that speed for? There's no way my hard drive can handle 3.5G write speed.

Network speeds are GBit, not GByte. A single HDD already saturates a 2.5G port

Hmm well then the question becomes how come when I'm downloading something on Steam over my 500Mbps connection it has to pause downloading periodically while it continues writing, as if the download is faster than the hard drive?

Because steam games are compressed and your CPU can't extract them fast enough

See raid0 (but be safe and do raid 1+0). Also maybe it's a server, so read speed is more important (usually).
