Ok so as title, I have my 120gb Samsung 840 EVO (with RAPID enabled) running off of a SATA II 3gb/s port (As I have no SATA 3 on my crap motherboard) in AHCI mode. These are the results I get when I run AS SSD Benchmark, and I also get similar results in Samsung's Magician software.
Now I'm obviously not complaining that the sequential read/write scores are high as that's good, but they seem impossibly high, especially since they are way above the max given by Samsung. My guess is that either RAPID is ridiculously good, or that there's some sort of error on my drive. Any ideas?

Tbh I can't see the performance boost from running on an SSD compared to a HDD being THAT much, bearing in mind the read/write times on my HDD are SUPER slow. I also can't shortstroke the HDD as it's got a lot on it that I can't back up anywhere to format the drive, but hopefully in the future I can get a bigger SSD for storage
