    Can you anyone confirm that the T420 and T520's have 6 Gbit/s SATA?

    those are drive speeds listed in the PSREF, not bus speeds.

    The new Intel chipset supports SATA III by default. There is not reason Lenovo would disable that. The new SATA III SSDs have barely reached market. The drives that are validated by Lenovo are still SATA II.

    C300 ssds which are currently still the best overall ssds have been out for around 5 months now so not sure I'd call that "barely reaching the market".

    I am waiting for W520, I hope they will support sata3. I have T60 now and they limited it to sata1 like Roger mentioned. I want to use Vertex3.

    T520 is out so I hope somebody will confirm this quickly.
