SATA 1 Detected, not SATA 2

As I was searching Launchpad I notice a lot of whining by people who are asking for help, I apologize for them (tho frustration can do that). Please smack me if I start. I think this may be a NVIDIA problem but this is where you would know.

I came across this while investigating a different situation but I couldn't find any info using either Google or Launchpad. My SATA drive is running using SATA 1 (1.5MB/s) instead of the SATA 2 (3.0MB/s) the drive spec says it should have.

The driver is the NVIDIA chipset so maybe Ubuntu has no control but I thought I would ask. Here are the commands I used to determine I was using the wrong interface. I'll put arrows to highlight what I think are the signs. Please let me know if this can be configured or if you think it is on the NVIDIA side.

Thanks in advance.
