Here's my before/after with a SATA 3 PCI-Express card

Did not think going from SATA 2 to 3 would make so much of a difference. Will be ordering a SATA 3 card now.

Will use my spare PCIEx 16 as I have read that PCIEx1 is limited to 250mb/s.
 
it will be a v2 pci-ex1 though which makes it 500MB/s, sata3 goes up to ~600MB/s so you do lose out on 100MB/s but its still an increase from using sata2.
