Still no SATA 6Gb / s on the iMac

Apple takes always curious how the new technologies. The firm is alternately the first to rush a new standard (USB Thnuderbolt) or the last. So while the new iMacs have Intel chipsets compatible SATA 6Gb / s, internal drives are still wired SATA 3 Gb / s. More than a delay, it's a step backwards since the MacBook Pro 2011 are wired SATA 6Gb / s.

But some users would suffer performance problems when SATA 6Gb / s is installed in these machines. According to our colleagues MacBidouille, the fault lie with the SATA ribbon cable, poor quality. Remains until the next update, the iMac will only benefit performance offered by the latest generation of SSD.
