In terms of numbers of times the speed life, how fast can a Daedalus-class ship go? And how much faster than the Prometheas is this?

in hyperspace, its has too be several hundred times faster then the speed of light. considering time aboard the ship remains the same as the rest of the galaxy. I remember in the earlier seasons of sg1, when they first where on a hetak in hyperspeed Carter saying it was faster then 10x lightspeed, so for a daedalus class ship to get to a far away galaxy ( 1 million light yrs) in 3 months real time, then the ship would have to be going several hundred times lightspeed."Sadly, I understood that. Where did all those Saturday nights go?" - Rodney McKay

I'm sure there's a way to figure it out; three weeks from here to Pegasus; just convert weeks to seconds, find the distance between the Milky Way and Peg DiG, then divide away and you've got it.

Prometheus Sublight Speed: 110,000 Mi/sec
Prometheus Hyperspace Speed: 99.21 LY/M
Daedalus Class Sublight Speed: unknown
Daedalus Class Hyperdrive Speed: 115.74 LY/MCalvin grows up to be Frazz. The logical continuation of this is, of course, that Frazz then grows up to be Edward Norton's character from Fight Club. And thus, all four of these characters are gods.Let's go one more step. Calvin grows up to be Jeremy, who grows up to be Frazz, who grows up to be "Tyler Durden," while Suzie grows up to be Haruhi Suzumiya; since Kyon becomes The Doctor, this leads to the inescapable conclusion that after the end of Fight Club, Calvin becomes Captain Jack.

In terms of speed, Daedalus-class vessels are still blisteringly fast compared to other species. A Goa'uld ha'tak could travel approximately 32,000 times the speed of light in hyperspace. The Asgard hyperdrives aboard Daedalus-class vessels take twenty days to reach the Pegasus galaxy (Comments within Stargate Atlantis make Atlantis 3 million light years from Earth.) This is nearly 1,800 times faster than Goa'uld hyperdrives (Or approximately 54,750,000 times faster than light). By comparison, the Daedalus when "supercharged" by Ra's ZPM only took four days to travel the distance. This is 273,750,000 times faster than light. And lastly, Thor's O'Neill-class vessel took one hour to travel between Earth and Hala, while towing the Prometheus. At four million light years, this is 35,040,000,000 times the speed of light, or nearly seven hundred times as fast as Daedalus under normal conditions, nevermind that Thor's vessel was hauling a Earth battlecruiser. Without being weighed down, the ships could be faster by an order of magnitude at the very least

A non ZPM enhanced Daedalus Class Battlecruiser can travel at around 2 Light Years per second or about 63,082,990.85 times light speed.
With a ZPM, it can travel at around 8.7 light years per second or about 273,919,968.1 times light speed.
This is assuming 3,000,000 light years between Earth and Atlantis, a 18 day travel time without ZPM, 4 day travel time with ZPM, and Wikipedia's figures for speed of light and distance in a light year.
Prometheus could travel at just below .6c and I thought I heard somewhere that a 304 could go fully .75c.When the time comes to utilize Earth's best weaponry against an ailen threat. The weapon that will ultimately prove to be Earth's best will be the Zatnikitel

Nice Work. Oh no, wait, he just copied it form stargatesolutions
