SATA drives and 1.5 vs. 3.0 compatibility
 
you would not believe how hard it is to get straight answers for the question i have. believe me, i've looked.

i want to get a new hard drive.

my motherboard has a SATA 1.5 interface.

are the 3.0 drives backwards compatible?

Yes.

There should be small jumper near the SATA connector. There should be cryptic notes on the PCB as well. What make/model drive?

nynor 05-15-2009 08:47 PM
no specific drive yet. i am looking at seagate TB drives.

slodave 05-15-2009 09:03 PM
It should not be a problem.
