Please log in for more thread options I have a MSI MS-7125 board. I have been running SATA 150 drives with this board, mainly Seagate Baracuda's. I like these drives and they work fine for me. My question is about the SATA 2 (300) drives. I have been told to stay away from them because they have problems. Is this true or not? I have heard talk of firmware problems with these drives. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options Interface speed doesn't matter. No hard drove runs faster than about 60meg anyway. So what's the point of whether they run at 150 or 300? | ||||||||||||||||

If you know of a specific SATA300 drive that has a firmware problem, please provide a link to more information about that problem. | ||||||||||||||||
