Hi guys, 

 

I have got a question about SSD shopping.

 

All SSD's I can buy (I don't mean afford) are SATA III SSD's. This is a bit weird, because of the SATA 6 GB/s Ports on the motherboards you can buy. 

 

You guys told me to go with the GA-Z87x-D3H from Gigabyte, thanks again, but it comes with 6 GB/s ports only.

Are SSD's bottleneckking your SATA connections ?

 

Would be great if someone helped me out on this one :)

 

Thanks !

SATA 3 is 6GB/s.

3 is the version. 6GB/s is the speed.

Lower case b please we're talking about bits not bytes :P that can cause a whole host of issues when people are getting 750MB/s max not their "promised" 6GB/s.

@X1XNobleX1X you too ^_^
