twistedpeer Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 no but at least i can use ssd on sata2. i tried new osx setup, newest firmware(1.3.3) but i didnt find a way fix it. I totally feel with you. My Macbook Late 2008 (same SATA controller) also won't connect to the Force 3 with SATA II speed. Instead it falls back to SATA I which is intolerably slow for a drive that can read/write more than 500MB/s. @Corsair: Are all Force 3 (SATA III) SSDs unable to work with NVidia SATA Controllers at 3Gb/s? Seems to me like a Sandforce controller and/or NVidia bug. At least one didn't do their homework. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
