I don't know ahoy the specs (cable) but when I got my gigabyte mobo - I got 3 cables with it and those actually said 6gb/s - and yes sir Dave white header correct

So they may be or maybe not be a difference (I am not the manufacturer) but I have some that say 6 (sata 3) and some that say 3 (sata 2)

So are u guys talking about poking around in the windows MS extensions ?

MS Essentials anti-virus settings....

Is Your SATA Cable Slowing Down Your Data Transfers? Max PC Investigates

The Verdict
Let’s first say that when we started this, we were absolutely sure we’d see a difference. Afterall, moving to an authentic SATA 6Gb/s cable cleared up our problems the first time right? Wrong. As we worked our way through the first few cables, we began to realize that the SATA I/O did its work when it first put together the Serial ATA spec for cables. There is virtually no difference between a brand-new SATA 6Gb/s marked cable made this year and one produced nearly eight years ago as far as performance goes. Expensive cable, cheap cable; long cable, short cable—none of it seemingly made a real difference. If anything, the minor variances in performance can be attributed to variances in the benchmark or the SSD.

Q9. Does SATA 6Gb/s require different connectors and cables to support the higher transfer speed?

A9. The same cables and connectors used for current SATA 1.5 and SATA 3.0 Gb/s implementations can be used to connect SATA 6Gb/s devices

The above image shows a SATA cable connected to the card. SATA cables are all the same, there is no need to upgrade here.

My question on SATA cables came from a quick search at newegg for SATA cable and looking down the list, some were labelled as SATA, some SATA II and some SATA 6gb. Its pretty durned confusing
