Agility 3 60gb only 1.5g

Thread Starter 
I have 3 SSDs currently in raid0 2 of which are OCZ Onyx 32gb drives and one Agility3 60gb drive.

the problem i have is in my raid menu it says my 2 Onyx drives are 3g drives(sata 2) and my Agility 3 is 1.5g(sata 1) FW on the agility is 2.22 and Onyxs are 1.7(max for them) Should i RMA my drive? ive also noticed my performance of all 3 in raid 0 is only sata2 max(my motherboard is sata2) yet when raiding it should combine the bus speed(i should have a max of 750mb/s max) yet i only get 260mb/s max

Is something wrong with my Agility 3?

No, As the lowest drive will become the main detail raid for the whole lot. Same as a sli setup, the lowest card will become the primary out of the two. Since you have two 32Gb then they will be the primary and the 60Gb will be after that. So whatever the speed you are getting on the 32GB will be the full output on all the drives. Or in better words the speed roughly somewhere x3 across all drives. You could test the drives with AS SSD and compare it to the factory specs. Or use ATTO depending on what controller you have. As one test uses incompressible data and the other uses compressible data. Thanks

I got you now, sorry about that. Is the drive updated with the latest firmware? And what about the controller you are using, latest firmware and driver installed? I'm guessing if you swap the drives around, letting the two 32GB be first and second it makes no difference either? Does it show as a sata3 on a port by itself? Thanks

latest firmware 2.22 im just using the onboard raidcontroller swapping ports makes no difference by itself even shows 1.5g

I used it in my macbook when i first got it from a member on here and it showed as 1.5g inside mac OS but i didnt pay attention to that... maybe i should have
