However, during disk check, macOS indicates a minor error on the disk.

Then restart the Mac with macOS and voila the 3 gigabit is now available. Then I made the HFS + 1mb smaller with the linux disk program "Gparted" and then closed linux.

I booted my imac (press "opt" key), with a bootable Linux (mint 19) Live USB and found out that the link speed of my Samsung SSD was the full 3 gigabit. I have tested it a number of times on my imac 9.1 and keep getting the same results.


Probably a little late, sorry about that … I had the same problem and i think i have found a simple workaround for this problem.
TRIM ENABLER FOR EL CAPITAN FREE PLUS
I stay sandisk, hey just found that the ssd plus has exactly the same controller like the bx 100 In conclusion i´m glad NOT to go for a samsung evo - like most experts on new hardware opting. On crucial side, someone tested a MX 200? ĭiablote´s tests with ultraII and plus from sandisk seem to be the best solution for me - the have marvell controllers both!? In my opinion sandisk made that firmware fix only for the first "etreme" because they had exactly that bad SF2281 controller built in, see. In yosemite it showed 1,5 GBit firstly, after enabling trim for Non-apple ssds since yosemite 10105 it got it´s correct 3,0 Gbit fine running. For Testing i put in a lowend sandisk ssd 128 last summer (which controller inside is nowhere to find - sandisk´s own?). Hi All! Thank you for your great research! After I put the switch in another position, I got 3Gbit/s every time I boot or reboot. Then I noticed a small switch in my Optibay. Well, in this configuration I got 3Gbit/s more times, bot not each time. I put HDD back in lower bay and SSD in Optibay. Again, if I boot from external HDD, I got 3Gbit/s! At last, I swapped HDD and SSD. There was no success - each time after I reboot I accidentally got 3Gbit/s or 1,5Gbit/s, for no reason. I clone HDD to SSD and made SSD as boot disk. Then I installed SSD at lower bay and moved old HDD in Optibay. Because I do not need DVD, I removed DVD from top bay and put Optibay (cheap from China) at that place. If I boot from external (over USB) HDD, I got 3Gbit/s every time! At this time no solution for this Mac. I cannot understand what affect at behavior like that. In "early 2009" SanDisk works sometimes 3Gbit, sometimes it goes to 1,5Gbit. I have SanDisk Plus 120Gb in Mac Mini (early 2009) and SanDisk z400s 128Gb in Mac Mini (late 2009).

I'd be curious to hear how other SSDs fare with this solution I'd also be interested in whether the CD solution works on an internal Superdrive. If you instead interfere with the startup, say by having a CD in the drive or by running Startup Manager, the link will negotiate to 3 Gbps. I can now repeatably and reliably get the link to run at 1.5 Gbps or 3 Gbps, depending on how I boot the Mini to the SSD.īased on my observables, I would isolate the finickyness of the NVidia MCP79 chipset to a timing issue at boot-if you allow the startup to occur normally, the link negotiation will fall back to 1.5 Gbps. Then without the CD in the drive I tried running Startup Manager at boot (by holding down the Option key) and selecting the SSD, and the link was at 3 Gbps. Even after several restarts it stayed at 3 Gbps, as long as the CD was in the drive. I put the CD back in and rebooted to the SSD, and the link was back at 3 Gbps. I ejected the CD and restarted the Mini, only to find it back at 1.5 Gbps. I had no illusions that the failed firmware loader had miraculously updated the firmware, but I found it curious that the link would be at 3 Gbps after trying to boot from the CD. To my surprise, I found the link operating at 3 Gbps. Unfortunately, the Linux system failed during bootup, so I rebooted to the SSD.

I figured I'd try the patch on the SSD Plus anyway (and return it to Amazon if it failed), so I burned the ISO to CD and tried to boot it off my external USB Panasonic DVD burner (the internal Superdrive has been dead for years). I found a discussion thread from 2012 on the Sandisk Forums isolating the issue to a finicky NVidia MCP79 SATA chipset on Macs of that era and suggesting going with other drive manufacturers I also found that Sandisk had acknowledged the problem and had released a firmware patch specifically for drives in Macs with the MCP79 chipset, albeit only for the Sandisk Extreme SSD. I just installed a 6 Gbps SATA III Sandisk SSD Plus in my late 2009 Mac Mini (running El Capitan) and was dismayed to find it operating at a negotiated link speed of 1.5 Gbps.
