Thanks..but which would you recommend?
I just need to get the best.
Is there a maximum capacity,i plan to go for 2TB...5400rpm or 7200rpm?..
Just a little confused.

Usually HDDs are backward compatibles (like SATA-I and SATA-II disks) but I haven't tested directly :(

I read from somewhere that a device can be SATA 3 compatible and not SATA 3 capable...just like when you are copying a file from a pc that has usb 2.0 to an external Hdd that is usb 3.0,you are not gonna get that speed that usb 3.0 delivers..

Difference between SATA II vs. SATA III

SATA II (revision 2.x) interface, formally known as SATA 3Gb/s, is a second generation SATA interface running at 3.0 Gb/s. The bandwidth throughput, which is supported by the interface, is up to 300MB/s.
SATA III (revision 3.x) interface, formally known as SATA 6Gb/s, is a third generation SATA interface running at 6.0Gb/s. The bandwidth throughput, which is supported by the interface, is up to 600MB/s.
This interface is backwards compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s interface.


So you'r correct >SATA III will work @the speed of 3Gb not 6Gb!
