From the top, the blue ports are SATA2(six) then comes the white GSATA3 ports(two) and finally the white GSATA2 ports(two)
I got a WD 640GB SATA3 HDD and is currently connected to one of the gSATA3 ports. Do you think I can simply swap it to SATA2 port which is connected directly to the Intel ICH10R?
It is the same drive as my two but i am running them in a RAID0 configuration. I tried them on the Marvell 9128 SATA3 ports and was very disappointed so moved them to the SATA2 and there was hardly any difference. So much for the "four times faster than SATA 2" advertising blurb
