hi guys, i have a question. If your motherboard can only support SATA upto
Storage Controller ATA-133, Serial ATA-150 (RAID). And you buy a hard drive wich supports SATA II/300mbps. Will it work on the motherboard? I imagine it will just run at a slower speed, is that right?

Yes SATA II is backward compatible and will run at the slower speed...
