If my laptop mobo is only SATA 2, using SATA 3 (Crucial M4) is wasted?

Planning to get a SSD for OS and apps. MB supports sata III 6.0, so thinking of either Vertex 3 or Intel 510 series 120gb. Is there a significant difference in performance between sata II(3.0) and III(6.0) in real experience? If not much different might opt for sata II instead. Need advice here. Thanks.

what mobo are u using. need to know what controller is on that mobo. and yes in real life there is not much difference, coz the difference is in milisecond and u wont even notice it. but compared to normal hdd u'd be wowed...

Z68 Intel chipset. Vertex and Intel 510 120gb both are RM899, might opt sata II at RM6XX.

u can also look for OEM ssd which got lower price but ofcoz lesser warranty period

It's 98% used up? That sounds rather unusual.

A 40GB SSD with lifespan of 3,000 writes and a write amplification of 10x should be able to write: 40GB x 3,000 / 10 = 12,000GB = 11.71TB

Or is it saying that it has already used up 2% of its life?
*
that indicator is not reliable. according to the test after it reaches 0 the indicator will then goes up again.. lol.. funny

Added on October 8, 2011, 12:27 amand for 40gb ssd they managed to write more than 200tb on that ssd...

From the first page alone, they were using the old stuff, I think with 5,000 p/e. With a write amplification of 1, that's 40 x 5,000 x 1 = 200TB. No surprise there. smile.gif
*
actually more than 200tb. some even reach close to 400tb!! funny.. but 1 thing we cannot rely on the wearout indicator, it seems when it reaches 0 still not at the end of ssd life yet. blink.gif hmm.gif makes us wonder how long can an ssd really last????

In fact, I've often heard from manufacturers that hitting up to 30K p/e cycles on standard MLC NAND isn't unrealistic.

Source: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4902/intel-s...-200gb-review/2

So instead of only 3,000 p/e, you can get 30,000 p/e by chance!

nice.. apparently we have not to worry loosing space in the near future...
