    Hi,

    After moving my Sandforce SSD to my new laptop, it seems Asus capped the maximum SATA2 speed a bit lower than the full speed SATA2 rating. On my previous laptop when benchmarking i could get 275/285MB/s with Intel AHCI drivers. After secure erasing and moving the SSD to the Asus laptop, speeds got a bit lower. 230/250MB/s. I've done all possible tweaks. Is this a known limit because of the bandwidth the GPU uses?

    Anyone had experience with G51/G60 notebooks and SATA speeds?
