    « on: January 27, 2008, 09:39:45 AM »
    Okay, I know I need to replace my HardDrive since it was causeing problems.  It was a sata 6B300SO Maxtor.  What I want to know is if this drive will work with my pc.  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822144188  Heres the specs It's a Pentium 4 Socket 478, BioStar Board P4M80-M4, DDR RAM 1 GB, SATA Drives 160 GB 300 GB, HDA Digital X Mystique 7.1 Gold, Radeon X1300.  But the drive says 3.0 sata is there like differnt sata's? aka sata 1 sata 2...    Will I be able to use the drive?

    Yes the drive will work...
    It will however drop to whatever SATA mode the MBoard supports.
    Check the MBoard info...
