My V5-171-9661 only shows SATA II (3Gb/s) speed with Samsung 840 Pro SSD. BIOS v2.15, AHCI, latest Intel RST drivers. Could someone please confirm?

Mane was 6gbs under earlier bios but usb3 did not work bios update sorted usb3 but broke sata back to 3gb/s.

SATA version 3, as in 6Gbps. All four of the ports on this board are SATA version 3.

As Richard says, it is supposed to work but in my experience it does not even for SATA II. For SATA III, if it worked at all and that is very unlikely, it will be so slow, you might as well write the data by hand.

Yes, SATA 3 is designed to work with SATA II, although at SATA II speeds. Either way it will still be faster than a normal magnetic drive. I'm using this specific SSD on a evga x58 motherboard with SATA II and it works fine. I also tried a Corsair Neuron GTX on the same motherboard and it runs perfectly with Windows 7. Just be sure to check with your motherboard vendor regarding SATA mode (AHCI, IDE or mixed) as you may have to update your BIOS to get it to work. Good luck!

Hello, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support, here to answer your question. That is not correct. The SSD like other internal drives is not operating system specific and will function in systems with SATA3 or SATA2 connections. What is operating system specific is the Acronis TruImage Cloning software included in the bundle package. New current version that is shipping is compatible with Windows 8/8.1. For any further assistance, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you.Thank you for selecting Kingston as your upgrade partner.

Any ssd should fin on the extra Sata 3 Bay, I'm sure the 840 from Samsung and the 530 from Intel fit for sure, just check is a fairly new ssd.

Yes. Took a little effort to get both running well. Go to station-driver for latest firmware and drivers. I have them in x58 with windows 7 x64.Speedwise they are good for sequential, random access is barely any faster than sata 2 ich10r. So not recommended for high performance SSDs

Comments from amazon.co.uk:Failed to work properly with an ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 motherboard and various SSD's & HDDs connected. Did not want to work with an SSD attached as a boot disk for Windows 8.1 Update.This is a nice card works in both types of pci slots in my computer. Worked with Windows 8.1 drivers. However, I bought it because I had SATA 1 connections on my motherboard and I thought I would get increased speed upgrading to SATA 3 with this card. However the speed using the SATA 3 card is significantly slower than connecting direct to the motherboard. A bit of a web search indicates that this is quite common. They may be SATA 3 6gb connections but, in practice no way near as fast as the SATA on the m/b.

I do not think this enclosure supports SATA III, as an Anker representative told me: "The speed is restricted by the chipset as well. This Uspeed enclosure supports up to SATA 2 perfectly but only compatible with SATA 3. While, the one you compared [SIIG SATA 6Gbps to USB 3.0 enclosure] seems to be with updated chipset to compatible with 6Gb/s."FYI, here are some speeds in MB/s, with an Intel 330 120GB SSD:Anker USB 3.0/eSATA enclosure (this enclosure): 176.4/134.2Seagate GoFlex Slim USB 3.0 interface: 250.5/152.5SIIG 6Gb/s SATA to USB 3.0: 257.9/149.6Newer Technology Voyager S3: 396.1/136.4The Anker is the slowest of the bunch.

The adaptor is compatible with PCIE 1.0 and 2.0 specifications (2.5 and 5GHz signaling, 250 and 500MB/s data rate), however the maximum data rate in the PCIE 1.0 connection will be limited at 250MB/s for a SATA III device. Note that the (supported) SATA signaling is 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0GHz (150, 300 and 600MB/s), different from PCIE data rates. Obviously the lower of the two, in any combination, will apply.

Hey i dont know about SSD Samsung . but important is model of Connectors. I using for my 2.5" SATA III HITACHI 320GB and is working Good. if you want to use SSD , is important you check Model of Connector . you can see my HDD Sata using with this Enclosure here : http://bixnet.net/images/NBHD-SATA-Connector.jpg Ok , if you have more question About Enclosure you can make contact always . about Quality i can say is perfect . :) Have a Sweet Weekend.

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.

The 4790k and 4770k work very well in this motherboard (I have a build with each, although I have not overclocked either rig). SSD's are fully supported as are the Hybrid (SSD+HD) drives. There is really nothing special about how SSD's and Hybrid drives are handled by the motherboard. As long as SATA channels are available, those drives will work except in rare circumstances.

i have not, have you looked at the OCZ site for info? http://ocz.com/consumer/ssd-guide

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.

No. Only SATA I and II. Complies with SATA I / II, speed up to 3G/sec, Complies with USB 3.0, speed up to 5G/sec(www.rosewill.com/products/1887/ProductDetail_Overview.htm)

I wondered the same thing when I bought it since I wanted to be certain of this. The manufacturer said it was "compatible" with SATA III, but that does not necessarily mean anything. The external interface is USB 3.0 and limtied to 5Gbits/sec max throughput, of course. Anyway, after testing with a fast 3.5" 7200 disk drive, I came to the conclusion that the drive internally is running at max performance for its platter write speeds - as you can see from my reported review. Unless I were to check with an SSD, I would not be certain of the interface, but my educated guess is that it is is an internal SATA III interface ... hope that helps!
