Hi, i plan on getting a 1tb hard drive but i think my motherboard is only sata capable, i what to know are sata 2 and sata 3 backwards capable with sata.
 
Solution
Sata 2 should be 100% compatible iwth sata1 and the same goes for sata3 but you might want to doubble check on the internet if that hard drive works 100% with sata1 because you never now.
