I swapped out my Vertex 2 for an Agility 3 SSD when I replaced my X58 mobo with a Asus P6X58D-E.. The board has 2 SATA 6Gb/s ports but these are run by a Marvell 9128 controller and performance is not as good as it could be ..
I can't afford the upgrade to a P67/Z68 setup at the mo so I figured the easiest way to achieve best performance would be a SATA 6Gb/s PCIe card.. I'm struggling to find any benchmarks of SATA 3 SSDs on any of these cards however..
I was looking at the Highpoint RocketRAID 620 card.. Most likely the none RAID version but if I got the RAID enabled card I could easily stick another Agility 3 SSD in later..
So does anyone know of any reviews or anything about which controller card would be best ta use? Cheeers
