Mac Pro 3,1 SSD Upgrade

So, was the discussion few years ago about suitable ssd's for macs only about trim?

FYI, I bought Kingston V300 60gb 2 years ago, and its controller couldn't handshake 3gb connection with my mbp's amd chipset. They tried to fix the ssd in UK, but eventually sent me 120gb version that worked.

this is faster than a SATAIII, right?

No, it is SATA III, which maxes out at 600 MB/s.

Just wonderin' who and how often needs faster speeds than sata2?
Running OS from ssd is 10x faster than from hdd even with sata1.
