In short, yes. In depth, no. SSD technology has far surpassed that of SATA bandwidth limitations, and SATA is a performance bottleneck. At the consumer grade, SATA III is pretty much as good as it gets, however, if you wanted maximum performance, grab a PCIe SSD. However, in terms of access times, you likely won't notice a difference, as SSD's are bottlenecked in their sequential read/write performance, not random read/write or IOPS. Random read/write is what determines how responsive and snappy the OS is. If one SSD has a Sequential read of 550MB/s, and a write of 500MB/s, and another SSD has a read of 450MB/s and a write of 375MB/s, and both of the SSD's have random reads/writes of 100MB/s, then the real world performance will be...
