| | SATA identification Hi, I'm about to upgrade a ssd 6gb/s to my hp dm4 laptop. Here's the pictures my system specs based on HWiNFO32 software. It looks like themotherboard has port 0 and 1 supports 6gb/s. My current hdd is currently on port 0, which shows 3gb/s. so, do i have SATA 3 or 2? Thanks |

| | Hi huy and welcome to Windows 7 Forums  I would say that your computer has 6G SATA capability. SATA III is backwards compatible with SATA II and I devices and, if such a device is connected to a SATA III socket, it will report the speed of the device, e.g. SATA II and not SATA III. |

| | Your HDD is only Sata II 3GBs and that is what it is showing. Ports 0 & 1 are 6GBs and will run a 6GBs HDD. Jim  |
