Other places list the Internal Interface is SATA I/II/III compatable for this model. However this listing only has it as SATA II? Does it have SATA3

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

It is tricky wording. You will be compatible with Sata III drives but will be limited by the usb3 speed. Sata III is 6Gb/s usb3 is 5Gb/s.

As far as I can determine, SATA I, II, and III are all physically the same - and you can plug a SATA III drive into a SATA II plug and it will work - albeit at only SATA II speeds. The documentation for this drive receptacle indicates it can handle SATA III drives... it can also do USB 2.0 and 3.0, for that matter - I am using it on an older iMac which only has USB 2.0 interface ports.Follow this link for more details on SATA compatibility:http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/8142/~/difference-between-sata-i,-sata-ii-and-sata-iii

I'm really not sure about your question... there is no msata - I interfaceIf you are asking about msata - II to sata - I then this will not work.,.,., however there are interface card that allow you to connect this and make sata interface

SATA III is backwards compatible with SATA I & II so it will work with this enclosure

Not 100% sure but SATA III (revision 3.x) interface, formally known as SATA 6Gb/s, is a third generation SATA interface running at 6.0Gb/s. The bandwidth throughput, which is supported by the interface, is up to 600MB/s. This interface is backwards compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s interface. This particular device claims a transfer rate up to 480Mbps, leading me to believe its a III

Yes. Sata 3 drives are backwards compatible with Sata 2 Connections and vice versa. But you'll be capped with Sata 2 speed.

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

Hi James,Yes, the interface is SATA III. I am using a SATA III 1TB HDD in mine. This enclosure is solid, built well, keeps drives cool and swapping drives in and out is easy! If your looking for super compact, it is not. It is still small since it takes 2.5 inch HDD's but definitely not the smallest. I love it because I plan on putting the 2.5 inch 1TB Velociraptor inside of it and I know it won't over heat and it will fit the 15MM thickness.

This hard drive is compatible with sata 6gb? I hope your early reply thank you in advance.

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 buy msata ssd, there's no sata slot inside. but l removed the CD driver to put my sata ssd inside. hope it will be helpful. :)

No. Only SATA I and II. Complies with SATA I / II, speed up to 3G/sec, Complies with USB 3.0, speed up to 5G/sec(www.rosewill.com/products/1887/ProductDetail_Overview.htm)

yes its sata III compatible but it can only run at sata II speeds. I instaled a sata III ssd and my read speads are 260mbps but on sata III motherboard it can do about 550mbps, almost double. but I haven't seen a laptop that supports sata III yet, only desktops.

SATA III (revision 3.x) interface, formally known as SATA 6Gb/s, is a third generation SATA interface running at 6.0Gb/s. The bandwidth throughput, which is supported by the interface, is up to 600MB/s. This interface is backwards compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s interface, also known as SATA II. In other words, your motherboard will address the drive, but you won't benefit from the increased speed capability of this strong WD hard drive. One solution is to buy a Rosewill RC-227 PCI-Express 2.0 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) Controller Card. Of course, your motherboard must have a PCI-e x1 slot available. A $19 solution..

Yes. SATA III drive will work in SATA II port at SATA II speed. SATA is both forward and backward compatible.

Hi, it is compatible with any SATA hard drive; however it is recommended to avoid green consumer drives such as the WD Green or Blue. Thanks!

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.
