what are the read/write speeds on this? can I use this as a SATA SSD with an adaptor? I was thinking of doing this so I have more flexibility for use

I dont remember read/write speeds, but it is fast. This is msata; there isnt room for an adapter internal. Adapter would work external while cloning.

I don't know the speeds offhand but it's plenty fast! I've successfully used it in a M.2 to 2.5 SATA adapter/enclosure.

Read is up to 500MB/s and write up to 400MB/s. Bootable as an OS disk or use it as storage drive. Can be use with PCI-e adapter card.

You can but, I don't know if you'll see improved I/O. I'm not sure what the SATA interface is to the drive. If it's an older generation you may not see improved throughput. Chances are you will see improved I/O. Just not sure how much.

It's gonna be a little slower that sata3 but still fast, works pretty good on mine laptop.

It does handle SATA III (6 GB/s), but your speeds are really determined/limited by the USB 3.0 or Firewire 800 interfaces. I am using it with a SATA III SSD as a boot drive for my mac mini, using USB 3.0, and it is incredibly fast. This is an excellent external HD enclosure.

ya i expected as much too, but it is a USB 2.0 speed for the enclosure, how ever the SSD is super fast when it's hoked by a SATA cable as an internal HDD.

it will work but you wont see the full performance of the drives. you'll get between 300 and 375mb/s on sata 2.

Unfortunately non-software that I have can test it and the hardware itself does not seems to be different physically but I will recommend it as it works good for burning at 6x and the time was 16 min as expected for this device class and if an optical go up from 16x then you maybe need SATA3 but currently it seems does not applies [16 576 Mbit/s 72 MB/s] because SATA 2 3Gb/s is good up to ~ 290MB/s read and write vs. 6Gb/s is good up to ~ 600mb/s read / write.

1- supports sata 3 up to 6Gbps. Backward compatible to sata 2 (3Gbps) and sata1 (1.5Gbps) specification. 2- No! This is an all in one unit. I'm using 2 64GB SSD drivers and set it up in a raid . It speed up your computer 100x better. It almost instantly the changes to the next window. I like this setup and it is in a nice package.

I'm very sure it will work with SSDs but you probably won't get the performance you expect. It would be more economical to get much cheaper HDDs.

I have not had any problems with this ssd.And I did research on it as well according to my findings it is the fastest drive for the buck.Check Tom's hardware for the publication.

You should expect to see speeds slower than SATA I (1.5 Gb/s = 150 MiB/s without allowing for overhead), due to the bandwidth of the IDE/PATA interface. Combine this with a lack of NCQ or AHCI support in the PATA specification, and while your speed will be much faster than the old HDDs (or even SSDs) that operated on IDE/PATA, it will be nowhere near the rated speeds for any modern SSD.

No, I don't think so, from a data standpoint, this is just a passthrough device, so if you connect a 6Gbps SSD in one of the bays, the bay itself will not affect the speed. I use this as a holder of my drives for my RAID6 array, and the drives are mechanical, so my limiting factor is the throughput of the RAID controller first, and secondarily the read/write performance of the drives. I'm getting over 3Gbps to this array, so that is further evidence that the device itself does not affect SATA throughput.

This drive has a SATA interface, I don't know if you might be able to get an adapter.

To be honest with you, IDE to SATA 3 - why? That IDE interface is sooooooo slow it would bottle neck the speed poential of this SSD drastically. I question SATA1 being used with SSD. Time to upgrade the PC.

Performance of crucial my and Samsung Evo SSD on SATA is quite good. m.2 SSD also a good option.

I was unable to locate any specifications for the system you identified.Make sure motherboard has Sata 3Gps or 6Gps (faster)If you are adding the SSD make sure you have an extra SATA port, cable and a place to mount SSD.** If the drive is configured properly on a 6Gps port, there will be a very notable performance boost over any HDD, this SSD will outperform any 10,000 rpm drive.

After reading the packaging & documentation the adapter comes with, it'll max out @ 3 gb/s speeds on HDD's and SSD's. No 6 gb/s speeds on this adapter.That being said, I still think it's a great product.
