Review this page: OWC Data Doubler.
Depending on your exact system your optical drives SATA Port is either SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) or SATA III (6.0 Gb/s).
Thats still not what your drive is able to push, you’ll need to review your drives spec sheet. Do keep in mind if your system only has a SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) port you need a fixed speed drive (one that only runs at SATA II).
