    My new GT60 0NE-220US is on the way and so is my Kingston SSD. When they arrive I want to insert my SSD into the primary/fastest slot and put the 500GB mechanical drive into a secondary position. Possibly a second 500GB drive later in RAID0 also.

    Could someone make a simple list of the SATA port speeds? I've seen references buried in many threads that one is SATA 3 and the others are SATA 2, but many posts are contradicting each other.

    I think I found it, can this be confirmed?

    Bay 1: SATA 3 (2x for super RAID with mSATA SSD's?)
    Bay 2: SATA 2 (2nd hard drive bay)
    Bay 3: SATA 2 (optical bay)

    Lol, I thought that was a sarcastic correction of my use of 3 instead of III. Didn't even notice that it was a link.
