SSD speed

Okay. Looking at the box it says: Asmedia ASM1061 SYPEX40039.

Ah! Reading this response I think perhaps I have PCIe 1.0.

The adaptor is compatible with PCIE 1.0 and 2.0 specifications (2.5 and 5GHz signaling, 250 and 500MB/s data rate), however the maximum data rate in the PCIE 1.0 connection will be limited at 250MB/s for a SATA III device.
Note that the (supported) SATA signaling is 1.5, 3.0 and 6.0GHz (150, 300 and 600MB/s), different from PCIE data rates. Obviously the lower of the two, in any combination, will apply

Okay, thanks. That explains the speed then.
So why would my parents SATA III port be around 200 MBps then? That's not using any adapter, just the SATA connector. It's a Dell Optiplex 780.


Edit-

I guess It's SATA II. Serial ATA 300.

I doubt that Optiplex 780 had SATA III. My X58 didn't even have SATA III unless you get a very late gen gigabyte X58 board. I'm pretty sure SATA III came out way after that Optiplex did.
