Hum - the spect. sheet says Product Specifications - interface SATA 6 Gb/s - to be sure u should call WD 1 (800) 275-4932

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 cannot answer that. This item didn't work to clone my SATA drive correctly. I returned the item for a refund.

yes it will work on sata 2 & 3 and its backward compatible means it will go back from 3 to 2 . you will like it

This should be compatible with it. Any 2.5 HDDs I have used have been compatible with it.

SATA is backwards compatible. You just will get SATA2 speeds instead of SATA3. Of course mechanical HDD max out at SATA2 around 120-150 MB/s so it doesn't matter. And if you're not transferring from another SATA3 SSD then you will be bottlenecked at SATA2 anyway.

No, I don't think so as the only connecting cable uses a specific USB 3.0 motherboard-capable connector. I do not remember seeing any ports for SATA connectivity.

Hello This is a standard laptop drive 2.5IN Therefore it should work in any standard laptop 2.5in SATA Connection.

It should be fine. SATA II drives are supposed to be backward compatible with first-generation SATA motherboards. There are a few exceptions to the automatic adjustment, but WD has a fix for that involving a jumper on the HDD: http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1337

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

It has worked with all my SATA drives from 100GB to 750GB. You'll have to use an adapter for pin conversion.

It's the same connection as a 2tb, it's SATA3, any windows 7 or 8 will compatible, the major spec you have to look is your motherboard, it has to be a uefi compatible board to go beyond the 2tb limit, if it's a recent motherboard it probably is, just check your manufacturer and model to be 100%. Search for: 3tb and uefi motherboards.Hope this helps

If it is a 2.5" labtop SATA it will almost certainly work. Even some of the older drives work; it all depends on the interface.

I have not tried it, but it should be fine. It doesn't care what SATA drive you plug in really, it's up to the OS to figure that out anyway.

It supports all the way up to SATA III 6.0Gb/s, and I'm pretty sure SATA is backwards compatible (to SATA I and SATA II).

It should work fine, though I haven't used that brand drive myself. It's the correct type (SATA III).
