Sata – If I my motherboard is SATAI, can it use SATAII hard drives?

My motherboard has SATAI and I was wondering if I could buy SATAII hard drives and use it with it. I expect SATA I transfer speeds, but I wanted to make sure to see if that is okay to buy a new hard drive.

Solution:

Yes. SATA II interfaces are backwards compatible with SATA I on both host and drive.
