About SATA, SATA II and SATA 3.0....

[Tellos Athenaios]

I would consider a different vendor than whichever one gave you this rather odd bit of technical advice... SATA is explicitly
designed for compatibility between revisions of the spec. Correct implementation should therefore have no trouble handling any SATA-3 /SATA/ SATA-2 mix you care to throw at it; which is to say that any manufacturer claiming premature disk death by SATA should be considered a snakeoil salesman.

Thanks guys! Odd advice from them really, more considering here you need to be careful when they say something is 100% compatible when clearly it isn't in their thirst to sell ;)

Now I'm tempted to visit and give them five good reasons to not scare their customers with bad advice!
