The issue is with the Nvidia SATA controller. The Nvidia SATA controller does not negotiate the link speed correctly for the Extreme II SSD and the Extreme II SSD will be recognized as a SATA 21 device. SanDisk has not and has no plans (this was posted in a different post) to release a FW that will lock the SSD in SATA 2 like they did for the Extreme SSD. So in short the Extreme SSD will not work in SATA II with a computer that has the Nvidia MCP79 SATA chipset.
