Hello all,

I recently purchased a WD caviar Black 2tb 7200 rpm sata 3 64mb cache and while installation was a breeze HD Tune Pro does not recognize the drive as sata 3. See attached photo. All cables were connected properly and the rest of my rig is listed in my signature. HD Tune Pro. does detect my main drive as a sata 3 as well as my external drive. I use Windows 7 pro 64 bit.

Can anybody help?




Thanks in advance to all replies.
Cheers
 
Doesn't matter on an HDD anyway, they can barely saturate a SATA1.0 connection.
SATA 2.0 getting saturated by an HDD is a pipe dream.

Your average speed is good, its functioning properly.
