Guys
I need to invest in a bigger HDD for my MA790FX-DS5 and really like the look of the one shown below. My question is will it be compatible with my motherboard as its a SATA3 ?
Thanks guys

Hi there,
I don't see a problem as SATA 3 6GB/s HDD's will work on SATA 2 but they will only run at SATA 2 speeds.
I'm using a 640GB Western Digital Black SATA 3 on my own system, a GA-790XTA-UD4 Mobo on a SATA 2 port without a problem.
