Ive come here rather than any computer forum because yes, i trust everyone here, so calling all nerds ?
my dell recently went kaaaboooom, i think its the motherboad bit i really cant be bothered to fix it, it is 3 years old now so could do with replacing anyway
ive just decided to change it, ive seen a really good deal on a new barebones unit, just a case, cpu, psu, motherboard and fans, the thing is that my old hard-drive which i wish to keep is old SATA but the new motherboard only has SATA II, can i still use it with my new system ?? im not sure about the backward and forward compatability of it yet
thanks in advance
