Chipset ICH8-M limited to 1.5 Gbits : Macbook 3.1 and 4.1

Apple artificially limits the SATA chipset. Today, with the rapid evolution of SSD I plan to add on my macbook pro 4.1 but the problem is that performance will necessarily clamped.
I think not only in this case, and we want an updated firmware soon. This is why we, the concerned, provide feedback on the forum that Apple offers a firmware update soon. Our model is not outdated and is still supported by Apple.
Moreover, with the arrival of the next Mac OS X Lion, this limitation we leave the key.

Come discuss this issue on the Apple support for many to complain about a single post, describe the problems you are having too.

Apple has done well to limit speeds on chips to keep power use and errors in check.

But Apple does not share such stories and the result is posts like this.
