SSD Upgrade, only getting 3 GBit SATA Link Speed
Last night I upgraded a customer's 2012 MacBook Pro with a Samsung 850 SSD drive. An upgrade I've done a million times. I also replaced the hard drive cable with a brand new one (from ifixit!). Everything went fine with one catch. While the computer shows it is capable of 6 Gigabit SATA speed, it's showing it's only connected to the SDD at 3 Gigabit speeds. On drives this fast, that speed difference is extremely noticeable.
I have no idea why it would be using this slower link speed. Any ideas?

What are you using to measure the speed, which bay is the drive in?

It is in the hard drive bay, replacing the hard drive. Check the second photo in the original question to see the link speed as reported by the computer. For comparison, my personal 2012 macbook pro with SSD in the HD bay reported 6 gigabit link speed with 6 gigabit negotiated speed.
