Why is my hard drive not performing at the maximum Sata II speed? MBP mid-2010 (macbook pro 7,1)

Question

I have a question pertaining to the factory hard drive in this Macbook pro mid-2010 that i have.  Currently my system profiler is showing that I am using only 1.5 GB/s of the maximum 3.0 GB/s allowed in the SATA II controller.  below are a couple of copy and pastes of the information on my Apple product.  Any help would be much appreciated before i have to go to the genius bar and battle it out with them.  I am using the operating System: Lion OS X 10.7.2
Best,
James
