Hi:

 

Your notebook's SATA drive controller is SATA III (6.0 GB/S).

No, I believe they are all SATA I (1.5 GB/S).

 

You can run this free utility I zipped up and attached below, and see what speed the DVD drive controller runs at.

 

Generally installing a SSD where the DVD drive goes is a bad idea as far as performance is concerned.
