I have a friend that runs it in IDE mode and it is still a lot faster than a platter drive his one complaint is that garbage collection and trim wont work unless in AHCI mode. So over the last year even though he hasn't installed a lot he has 20 gigs less than he should.
I told him if he doesn't want to upgrade we need to wipe it and start over so he gets his space back but he is going to wait till it gets worse.
