    Hi,

    Does anyone know if SATA2 Hard Drives are compatible with the IFL90? Has anyone got one in theirs?

    If so, does it transfer at 3Gb/s or is it limited to 1.5Gb/s? Also, is there a maximum size limit to the HDD?

    Thanks in advance for any info you guys can provide!

    Sata II is retrocompatible with sata I. And no there are no limit to the drive capacity as long as it fits in the case.

    I think SATA 2 Hard Drives are compatible with the IFL90 because I have a segeate Momentus 7200.3 and it is a SATA 2 hard drive. It have jumper to make it compatible with SATA 1 but I never displace jumper, so my hard dirve work in SATA 2 mode. (sorry if my english is not very good ;) )
