Because it is only like $3 in price...ThanxsThe SATA or SATA I interface transfers data ~150MB/s and SATA II at ~300MB/s. Dont let this spec fool you though, because it is just the interface. There is no hard drive yet available that can choke a SATA I interface, so on the drives themselves SATA I/II doesnt really matter yet. If you are getting a new motherboard, I would strongly recommend you get one with SATA II so you can upgrade to faster drives down the road.
daz98 Posted November 23, 2005 Author Posted November 23, 2005 ok thanks alot this really helped me for 3 dollars less i sahll get the sata 2 one..lol at the moment i have mobo ide hard disk so i really needed to upgrade thanks again
