FYI...
The terms "SATA II" or "SATA 2.0" are not official. Every manufacturer has been choosing their own naming scheme.

Drives are either called SATA 1.5Gb/s or SATA 3.0Gb/s, when referencing speed.

They are sometimes called SATA 2.0 or SATA II when referencing features. NCQ (Native Command Queuing) is the most common example. Some 1.5Gb/s drives for example, have NCQ and are considered 2nd generation SATA drives.
