Does the LG GH24NS90B have a SATA3 or SATA2 interface?

sata is sata, doesn't matter if it is sata3 or sata2, all those only matter to things like hard drive that needs that much bandwidth to start with. sata3 is over kill, hdd can't function up to that speed anyways, unless you are connecting to a high end SSD.

I do not know if the drive has a SATA2 or SATA3 interface. SATA3 interfaces are somewhat faster than SATA2 interfaces. Either interface works with a standard SATA cable and should work just fine with your system. The DVD data transfer rate shown in the drive specifications on lg.com is 22.16 megabytes per second. Sorry to not have a definitive answer.

The answer is yes. There is a USB connector, but if that does not work you can turn the box upside down and connect with the SATA interface directly.

it's just a spec:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA#SATA_revision_3.0_-_6_Gbit.2Fs_-_600_MB.2Fsread on...

I assume you meant Sata 1,2, or 3. There are differences, primarily the speed they are capable of supporting. You would want to use Sata 3 cables in any modern PC just to be safe and ensure you get the most out of your hard drives.

If you mean the SATA version support, it looks like it is Sata 3. The drives I have connected to this unit are showing 5.8Gb/s speeds.

It should work. Most Sata 3 will be backward compatible with sata2, which runs only 3G/s not 6G/s.

hi, just to clarify, this board has 2 sata III connections which should work with any drive that is compatible with the sata standard. ssd or hdd even a bluray drive. make sure you have the black sata power connectors from power supply too.

The PSU is not standard, 14 pin connector to MB. No SATA cables neither from PSU, the HHDs are powered by proprietary cabled plugged into MB.

Any SATA 6GB/S is compatible with it, this Motherboard contains 6 6gb/s connectors.

This will work with either SATA or PATA drives, connectors are included for both. I hooked up an old 250 GB. PATA drive as new motherboard had no connectors for it.

I don't know. All I can find is this: Max. 5Gbps (USB 3.0), Max. 480Mbps (USB 2.0) & SATA 3Gbps

It is a standard SATA connector. I added an SSD to mine first thing. Warning: This will void the warranty.

You should be able to replace it without compatability issues but it will not perform at maximum specifications if the interface is not sata III

SATA II specifications provide backward compatibility to function on SATA I ports. SATA III specifications provide backward compatibility to function on SATA I and SATA II ports. However, the maximum speed of the drive will be slower due to the lower speed limitations of the port. Example: SanDisk Extreme SSD, which supports SATA 6Gb/s interface and when connected to SATA 6Gb/s port, can reach up to 550/520MB/s sequential read and sequential write speed rates respectively. However, when the drive is connected to SATA 3 Gb/s port, it can reach up to 285/275MB/s sequential read and sequential write speed rates respectively.

Looking at the board , look to the left of the two visible white SATA ports , positions 2 & 3 . Positions 0 & 1 are in an opposed position . They are sideways . I don't know the reasoning for this but I suppose because gigabyte wants you to use position 0 for the primary hard drive and position 1 for the secondary hard drive or primary cd/dvd drive. The two white SATA ports facing up are your secondary SATA ports for additional drives.

Everything I have seen suggests 6bps, which is SATA 3. Crucial's website itself says 6bps as well, so I'm pretty sure it's SATA 3. I can say I've loved it since I got it 2 months ago.

It is compatible with SATA III. However you will never reach those speeds with conventional hard drives.
