Buying alien internal HD. Need a lil give a hand?

I hold 2 SATA hard drives but want to upgrade one next to a 500Gb HD i have see, however the drive is a SATA II. I have of late the normal SATA on my motherboard, is the SATA II towards the back compatible like USB2 to USB 1.

Buying alien internal HD. Need a lil give a hand?

There is a pullover on the back of SATA II drives where on earth the power and data connections are to downgrade it to SATA 1. There is a diagram on the drive unfolding you in what position this pullover should be to enable SATA 1.

I hope this help.
motherboard won't allow sata II speeds, but it will work.
yes
Yes it is !!
Hi



Before spending i would check the motherboard maker website to see if the size is not a problem or do you involve a bios update?[The bios chip has a sticker showing altered copy so you can find out and the motherboard will have a model numer on it and inventor name.



bye
