This is well documented bug with SATA 3 drives and Nvidia MPC79 chipset used in some Macs. I have Kingston v300 SSD in MBP 17" 2009 and even though chipset supports SATA 2 speeds, the SSD works only as SATA 1 drive, which is really annoying, it's still pretty fast compared to stock 7200rpm drive, but still, it should be twice as fast. Has anyone ever found some solution?
 
Anyone?
 
Sorry its a very old thread, may be the answer is not helpful.

I have same controller on imac 24 early 2009 , same issue of negotiated speed 1.5 after ssd upgrade into the hdd/cd caddy. nothing worked except upgrade to el captian fixed it. why ? i have no idea but its faster.
