HDD and SSD running on SATA2 @ 1.5gb/s

[plutomok]

XFX 750i SLI
Intel Core2duo e7500
Generic 320gb boot drive
Samsung 850 evo

 

The motherboard support four Sata2 3gb/s drives

 

Samsung EV0 850 (new) running at 1.5 gb/s (benchmark results 132mb/s read 114mb/s write) [this is not good]

WD Green 2TB (new) running at 1.5 gb/s

WD Green 1TB (old) running at 3 gb/s 

 

it seems the two newer-gen drives that are rated for SATA3 6GB/s arent even running at SATA2 speeds...
But the older Sata2 3gb/s drive seems to be working fine

could be an ussue with the motherboard sata connectors of if you were cloneing the os over usb 2

No, both drives connected to the motherboard directly over sata cables

There's also a 2tb wd green storage drive....and its displayed at the correct 3gb/s

plug the WD 2TB HDD to the ports that's reporting at 1.5GB and see if it does the same thing.

Are they plugged into SATAIII ports?

No. 

This is an older LGA775 motherboard. it only has SATA2 3 gb/s ports

 

 

*UPDATE*

Samsung EV0 850 (new) running at 1.5 gb/s

WD Green 2TB (new) running at 1.5 gb/s

WD Green 1TB (old) running at 3 gb/s

So your 2tb somehow magically went from 3gb/s to 1.5gb/s?

Wat?!

6Gb/s. Capitalizing the B indicates bytes, not bits.

Try your ssd and 2tb hdd into the 1tb sata port and see if it reports it as 3gb/s. Plug your 1tb into the sata port wherevthe ssd or 2tb hdd is and see if it reports it at 1.5gb/s. Change sata cables or use the sata cable from the 1tb. Update the nforce chipset drivers.

already tried using the same ports and new sata cables, no result.

 

going to try updating drivers http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/30589/en-us

However this pc runs win8, and the last driver release was for win7, hopefully it works
