So, I'm looking to buy a new hard drive for my computer, and the current one I want is this:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6822144417

However, my current hard drive says SATA 1.5 GB/s, and the one I want to get says SATA 3.0 GB/s. I was told to check if the new hard drive I want can be placed on my computer by checking my motherboard, but I can't find it. Can someone help me with this?

Thanks.

In order for the people to help you out you should also post the MoBo model for more accurate feedback.

SATA 3.0 is compatable with 1.5, it will be limited to the speed your motherboard can handle.
