Does anyone know the following answers?
What is the speed of the mSata slot in the Y500? Sata II or Sata III?
What is the speed of the normal HDD slot in the Y500?
With the removable HDD adapter for the ultra-bay what speed would it have?
I realise that not all of the above will be Sata III due to the chipset limitation but because of the SLI option for the ultra-bay maybe the HDDs will get some Sata III speed as a result.
I need at least two Sata III ports in a laptop for uncompressed video editing so I'm wondering the Y500 is doable.
I've checked all the official Lenovo documents (Hardware Maintenance Manual, User Guide, Ideapad Book) and nowhere does it explicitly state the speed of any of the Sata ports, unlike the Y580.
This is just a hunch so I would love for the NBR community to check if you got one!
Thanks.
