Sigh, the C600 RAID on the Rampage IV Extreme has been a major PITA to get working properly. Now it is stuck at SATA II speeds:

Running BIOS 2012, two 120 GB Vertex 3 Max IOPS connected with 6 GB/S cables (same drives and cables I just removed from Z68 board that was running over 1000MB/Sec Sequential Read so I know it is not the drives or cables), SSD just secure erased, plugged into 6 GB ports on MB, secondary/aftermarket SATA chip disabled, created 128k stripe in Raid 0, BIOS settings set to Raid, hot-plug disabled and SMART enabled, running Intel C600 RAID driver: 3.0.0.3011, everything under Intel RST interface is showing good, SSD Write caching enabled.

As far as I can tell everything is set up perfect and I should be getting SATA 3 speeds, not 2. So is there some super secret SATA 3 BIOS entry or something simple I am missing?
