thinking of installing this on a Vaio VPCCW21FX which has SATA 2 will this work with SATA 2?

it will work but you wont see the full performance of the drives. you'll get between 300 and 375mb/s on sata 2.

Yes this HD will work on a SATA II two connection. The bottle neck is the SATA II connection it will work but wont be as fast as a SATA III connection.

Yes it should. It has 2 SATA connectors not one. You should be more concern with will it fit in you PC case? Does the mounting screws hole match up? I hope this is helpful. Bye

I, I believe that some of the SATA cable has the power connections built into them and some don't. If you have an power connector off to one side I would say it should work.

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

Hi, for all Sony Vaio computer, it uses 2.5" SSD, which means your SATA drive should be 2.5". -Ely

Absolutely. This will work on PATA and SATA drives both 3.5" and 2.5". The 2.5" is what would be in the laptop.It is an excellent product. I have another one which I bought earlier but this one has some additional featureslike the on/off switch.

As long as your desktop has SATA connections you should have no problem. Will work on SATA 2 or 3.

It is supposed to work. You need to have enough room in your case to plug it straight into the motherboard. (At least 2 inches above motherboard clear, maybe 3.) Then you will have to play with the two sata connectors to figure out which is which. Read the other reviews on here about plugging the IDE portion in correctly. It is VERY VERY VERY easy to plug in wrong.

Yes it will work because it is a SATA drive and your system accepts SATA drives.

It would probably work but I'd imagine the speed wouldn't be any better for than any other sata 1 drive you've had. If possible you should pick up a PCI SATA 3.0 controller or at least a 2.0 controller an use it that way if anything. Otherwise it might not even be worth it unless you plan to use it for a future build also.

Yes, it will work. It supports both IDE and SATA. Make sure to use the proper connection.

Generally if it has a standard SATA connection, it should work. The only thing I could see a possible issue with would be the encryption that the drive uses and if special software would be necessary. I don't know much about that type of drive.

Mine did not work. This drive is sata and I needed a pata drive. Double check. I have done these replacements before And they work great. Just do your research and insure you are purchasing the correct interface.

You should be fine with this one. Sata II runs at 3.0 GBps and Sata runs at 1.5 GBps. Do some research on Google but you will more than likely be more than satisfied.

Most Sata connectors are backwards compatible. Just do a quick Google search.

Yes, it will work off any SATA 2 or SATA 3 controller. There is no mounting kit that comes with the drive. I use an Icy Dock but there are many enclosures available that will do the job inexpensively.
