Re SATA II or SATA III. Brian, how do I tell in my early 2011 15 MBP 8,2 which I have? In About this Mac it just says "SATA". Thanks.

Your 8.2 MBP has SATA III 6Gbps hard drive connection, and a SATA II 3Gbps in the optical drive conection. We see folk remove the optical drive and install a second hard drive. All well and good, but then they ponder why this is so much lsower.

Pop over to Mactracker and download their utility which shows full performances for all Macs, Displays, iPhones, iPads, iCameras etc etc etc.
