Poor SSD performance

I've just built my SB rig, with an Asus P67P8, P500K and a Kingston SSDNow V-Series SSD pulled from my Macbook Pro.

Everything seems to be running OK, but it doesn't seem to have the same dramatic effect on boot/application load times as it did on the Mac.

I also noticed that windows performance index only gives it a 5.9.

It is plugged into a SATA 6gb/s port on the motherboard, however at boot that SATA controller indicates that it is achieving 1.5Gb/s.

Any suggestions? Is there a setting I need to change somewhere, is the drive broken or is it really just not that great?
 
I doubt it is 6gb/s, as it isn't a recent SSD.

Just run HDTune.

Tfr rate:
Min: 33.3 MB/s
Max: 105.7 MB/s
Avg: 94.5MB/s

Access Time: 0.2ms
Burst: 1647 MB/sec
CPU: -1%
