will this work with a SATA III hard drive?

I am close to saying 'I don't know' but my judgement would be if the drive fits the unit it will work.Nothing will be harmed if you try.

As Richard says, it is supposed to work but in my experience it does not even for SATA II. For SATA III, if it worked at all and that is very unlikely, it will be so slow, you might as well write the data by hand.

Yes it will. Just not to full capacity. SATA 2 caps at 3gb/sec instead of 6gb/sec which the drive is capable of.

Yes this cable is usable with any sata hard drive, including old style sata. It is backwards compatible.

it will work if this statement in the advertisement is true:"Supports Standard Desktop 3.5-Inch SATA or IDE Desktop Hard Drives"

This is internal drive, so we assume you already have an adapter that convert internal SATA port to eSATA2. If that's the case it will work.

Yup, it should work. Even if your computer is SATA I, a SATA III drive will still work, but it will only be as fast as the highest capable speed you have based on your SATA configuration.

Yes, most likeky. (99% sure) If that drive has the usual 44pin connector it will work. You have to remove the caddy (harddrive holder) first.

SATA 3 should be backward compatible. I use this to clone SATA drives. Contact StarTech.com to be sure.

Standard SATA connectors, will work with any SATA port. May not be the cheapest drive you can buy for what you're describing, but that's your call.

As long as your hdd enclosure is sata compatible, I don't see why not. This is a 6Gb/s drive so you're better off with something that supports SATA III. SATA I: 1.5Gb/s. SATA II: 3Gb/s. SATA III: 6Gb/s.

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

The board does not support SATA III, but the specification is backwards compatible with SATA II. So it will work fine but you won't realize the increased speed that SATA III provides. Not really a big deal.

That should work fine with the SATA interface. If you are upgrading I hope you have an "image" of your original drive, or contact Toshiba support to obtain an original disk set for your unit.

I doubt it but maybe they manufacturer could give you a better answer. I used to connect a SATA HD to an old IDE computer. I worked great.

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.

It supports any drive that has sata connectors. So as long as that drive has standard sata connectors it should work.
