That said, it appears that Lenovo may have a stated company policy supporting 1.5Gb/s and *not* recommending 3.0Gb/s: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=399772 . The chipset is definitely SATA-II (SATA300), but the firmware appears to throttle it down. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC www.2rosenthals.com Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com Secure, stable, operating system www.ecomstation.com -------------------------------------------------------------
