Hi there, would an SSHD be plugged in Sata 2.0 or 3.0?

Always use the SATA 3 as it is backward compatible to SATA 2.

Dude SATA 3 is better for ssd but the ssd wil never get to those speeds anyway, but the high bandwidth is nice. The SHDD can be plugged into the SATA 2 port, it won`t make a diff. If you only have 2 of them then yes the SSD SATA3...

BTW: anything will work on any of the 2 ports...

the sshd can take a bit of advantage of the extra speed. on sequential reads. if you have a free port use a sata3. sata 2 is plenty too

Absolutely! Wanted to say that, whatever you have in the other SATA3 port, remove it and put these 2 in there. But if you only have one then the SSD takes priority...

No, SSHD will take advantage to the SATA 3 like a SSD not like a mechanical HDD which will never reach the speed of SATA 2

rolli, you missed a "," after the first no. when i first read it i thought you're saying sshd doesnt take advantage of sata3 either.
