    Anyone can confirm (with facts) that the 2 internal 2.5" drive bay are SATA III 6gb/s or only 3gb/s?

    Where did you get your info C_Man? You saw this somewhere, or you got hands on with your SSD and the performance you got with that SSD on another system with 6gb/s interface?

    I can't find anywhere that the 7720 has 6gb/s neither 3gb/s... i would like to see it in some kind of specs. I know the hm77 chipset has 2 sata 6gb/s port available, but does the 7720 have them too?

    Samsung SSD software said SATA 3 6Gb/s. Do you have problems with your SSD? My Samsung was performing top specs.

    Only problem i have is that i didn't received it yet... And since i ordered a Sata 3 6gb/s, i wanna make sure the sata port will be able to use it to max specs.

    A guy in here got one without a second bay SATA connector. So I can only tell you what I had in my laptop since it seems not all 7720 are the same all over the world.
