> I just put an SSD into my hp dl585g7. I used the provided sata SSD drive connector, it's on the same sata driver that runs the optical drive. It's terribly slow to boot etc. Is this just a slow controller designed to keep up with an optical drive and swamped by an SSD? would pulling the optical drive help? |

If this were PATA I'd say definitely. But SATA was supposed to fix this. |

Try it anyway is my guess. |

I'd just need to extend the power from the built in ssd connector. Advice? Suggestions?? At this point it's slow to boot like a thumb drive on USB 2 or an optical drive. I have an identical SSD in my desktop and it runs near the rated 500MB/s so I'm confident the SSD is good. |

Your other SSD is good? Doesn't mean this one isn't faulty. |
