Since you asked:

The motherboard manual claims it supports SATA 2 (3Gb/s). However, ada2
is an SSD, and camcontrol identify ada2 reports:

    pass2: <KINGSTON SVP200S37A60G 502ABBF0> ATA-8 SATA 3.x device
    pass2: 150.000MB/s transfers (SATA, UDMA5, PIO 8192bytes)

    protocol              ATA/ATAPI-8 SATA 3.x
    device model          KINGSTON SVP200S37A60G
    [...]

so FreeBSD doesn't appear to know that.
