Nowhere near 400 MB/s 10/05/2012
This review is from: APRICORN VEL-SOLO-X1 Performance SSD Upgrade Kit for Desktop PCs and MacPro
Pros:
Its is PCIe = higher throughput than SATA. Speeds are dependent on what lane you insert the card. 16x lane worked the best. SSD Corsair Force 3 sata III. Original r/w were 180 MB/s - 200 MB/s.....with the card: 209 MB/s - 205
Cons:
Nowhere near as advertised on a Mac Pro system.
Overall Review:
I did not purchase this card to get Sata III speed on a Sata II system. I just needed to add a 5th internal drive to my system. I am currently running two of the same ssd's in Raid 0 and getting 423 MB/s - 400 MB/s. My raid is bootable and everything has been very stable (knock on wood).
