It would depend on the buffer size being used. In Andre's case he reported it was ok with non-2.0 speeds, probably just luck that the buffer on his disk is large enough that it works ok.
In general I have never had good luck with sync providing anything resembling a decent speed except with raid subsystems that have battery backed-up caches and/or return done the moment it gets into its cache (whether safe or not).
