Will it benefit to add SSD to my system even-though only on SATA 2?
At the moment, I have a WD Velociraptor 1TB as my main drive.

Hi sifu, I have question to ask about SSD. Currently my PC is only running on SATA 2 (3Gb/s), definitely I won't able to achieve the rated speed for SSD.
Will it benefit to add SSD to my system even-though only on SATA 2? At the moment, I have a WD Velociraptor 1TB as my main drive. |

Sifu, this is my first time buying and installing SSD. I'm running on SATA2, so is the speed correct?
The SSD is Crucial MX500 1TB.

QUOTE(TristanX @ Dec 13 2018, 09:04 PM) SATA2 is half the bandwidth of SATA2. Thats clear bottleneck. I think you meant SATA2 is half the bandwidth of SATA3 right?QUOTE(piscesguy @ Dec 13 2018, 10:12 PM) Compare my mx500 500gb on SATA3, so I guess your speed is about right. Should be since I got halve from what you got.   Theoretically SATA2 at 300MB/s while SATA3 at 600MB/s. Is a good investment as I notice the startup and shutdown quite responsive compare to mechanical drive.  |
