Is it worth to get a SATA-3 controller to max my SSD out?
After multiple thoughts I decided to buy my first SSD drive, and after some research i've found theese:
- OCZ Vertex 2
- SATA II (3Gb/s)
- SandForce SF1200
- Max Read: up to 285MB/s
- Max Write: up to 275MB/s
and
- OCZ Agility 3
- SATA III (6Gb/s)
- SandForce SF2281
- Max Read: up to 525MB/s
- Max Write: up to 475MB/s
(both of 40 GB capacity)
Agility 3 costs only 10$ more than Vertex 2. Is it worth buying it, assuming that my motherboard supports only SATA II 3Gb/s? Can I do something to avoid the bottleneck? (upgrading mobo is not an option)

See my answer here. In short, if the price difference is really $10, you should definitely get the faster one because the controller chip is evidently better.
