Macmini3,1 Samsung 840 evo SSD (SATA3) shows SATA1 rate (apple forums)
(Reminds me of same issue w/other macs of similar era/chipset - SATA3 SSDs run at SATA1 rates with onboard SATA2 bus. OWC has a note this affects 2009 iMacs, 2008-2010 MacBooks and 2008-2009 MacBook Pros although they don't list any mac mini models affected.)
